ARGH!
14 years ago
I'm possibly having the most stressful week of my life. On saturday my mom who's an epileptic had a blackout on saturday. This in itself was not alarming as we're use to things like thisl
But on sunday morning at 3:15am she had a seizure, which troubled both of us as she never had one in almost 20 years. So i stayed with her all night, and slept in the living room with her. on monday morning around 5:25am she had another seizure. This was even more alarming as this never had occured twice in such close proximity to each other.
Since then she's had minor seizures, her doctor didn't answer her calls on monday. but her nurse did, and just told her to increase her meds by a set amount and to go to the ER if it happened again.
On tuesday my dad came in, which would've been cause for celebration.
On wednesday morning at 3ish we went to the ER because the minor seizures weren't stopping. They held her for an hour, gave her some new meds and released her after making sure that they wouldn't bother her.
My dad is now acting like he doesn't care about mom anymore. In fact he's mad at her for the stupidest things, like not going to the store with him.
I don't know what to do anymore. I'm hanging on as much as i can. My dad is not helping at all or being supportive in any way. In fact i don't think he cares about me anymore either.
Update:
My mom is feeling slightly better but not by much. Went to her doctors on Thursday (today), they are going to do a test to see if they need to switch her medicine.
My dad's not angry at my mom... he's stressed about his job and that. The company he's working for his threatening layoffs and that.
So hopefully on friday everything well get sorted out.

How's your mom doing? Is she alright? I do dearly hope she isn't still having seizures!
So uh, hi. And I do hope your mother overcomes her seizure, and that your dad does well in his job.
It has been 3 months since this journal, hasn't it? What's the news now, Simple?
She's doing a lot better. So for so good no seizures.
I need to make a new journal about this now.
