Re: Atheist Census
He won't have to go back to him.....
As for the rest. We'll just have to wait and see. The pain is still there, enough to still be on 3 pain meds and neuro-suppressants. And because of the first thing we tried before brain surgery....the "gamma knife treatment"...had not been tested for long. They said there was a possibility of brain cancer years down the road...in some people who may be susceptible.
So, who knows.....just gotta leave it out there in the Universe and go with the flow. ♥

Re: Atheist Census
I hope he'll be ok, and am glad he has a strong, supportive Mom like you to help him through it all.

Re: Atheist Census
I worried when I first found out what he had, and the doc said they called this the "Suicide Nerve", because it happens to older people mostly (70 plus and they can take pain meds and sleep), but when younger people get it, the pain drives almost 85% of them to commit suicide, because they can not cope with life. That was why I was NOT leaving Las Cruces, until I knew he had accepted what was ahead. But he's a tough kid.....typical boy, can't clean worth a crap, sprawls everywhere....butt-headed (wonder where that comes from ), but he has a good outlook on life. Rarely gets down....
So we keep chugging along!
And his Momma would not be so strong without her online friends like you who listen and make me laugh. You and several others have gotten me through a lot...more than you all know. THAT was why even though I closed Queeny's, I could never completely leave RB...it's my home, my support system, my sanity check (or insane asylum )....you all keep me together.

Re: Atheist Census
Nothing like hanging out in an insane asylum to help you realize how sane you are.
Nah, I think life throws things at all of us from time to time that make us feel like we've lost our minds, but we can help each other find them again.
I hope your son is feeling better these days.

Re: Atheist Census
The doctor who made that prediction didn't know you very well, did he?
I'm sure a lot of people that your condition at 20 would have ended up in a wheelchair by 40. You probably would have been, too, if it weren't for your strong determination, high tolerance for pain, and the fact that you give it exercise on a regular basis.

Being stubborn can have its good points and bad points.

Re: Atheist Census
It's all about picking our battles. It isn't always easy, but it's better than being stubborn all the time or a pacifist all the time. As long as we're right when we do choose to battle, of course.
