Old School
I recently had these photos given to me by my Aunt after my grandfather passed away.
I had to share!
We don't have many photos of my brother and me with my father, so I was psyched:
Top Left: My father, Larry with his cousin and her husband. Notice the T-shirt my father is wearing.
My Aunt Nancy had to have given that to him. That would be my face...nice.
Top Right: My brother Josh and me at the Palmer's (Loved Terry and Norm). My brother has ALWAYS been cute, by the looks of this photo, I grew into it :)
Bottom Left: I had a pet raccoon when I was a kid. His name was Rocky. He died when one of the nasty old barn cats got him sick. Jerks. He was pretty awesome, kind of like my haircut.
Bottom Right: That would be me..pulling a trailer in the Old Home Days Parade in Bar Mills with my new bad ass three wheeler. I think I went 1.5 miles per hour so I'm thinking the helmet was simply to cover the bad haircut.
Top Left: My father, when he was super skinny and young at Skips in Buxton
Top Right: My brother and my grandmother's dog, Thumper. Thumper was a dirty little dog with a terrible underbite.
Bottom Left: Family friend with Josh
Bottom Right: Josh and me at the most wonderful place on earth...My Grandparent's Farm. Again, I'm awesome!
Top Left: Larry with his buddies
Top Right: Oh, there I am, pulling that float! HAHAHA!
Bottom Left: My father and Josh at my grandparents
Bottom Right: The one trip I remember taking with my dad...EVER. The Blue Angels Show. I think this is the only photo of the three of us together. I love this photo, just for that reason alone.
Fun Times!

Updates!!
Holla! I'm back after a "bit" of a hiatus.
Maybe a LONG hiatus :)
Anyway, let's not concentrate on the negatives...I'm here now, with an UPDATE!!
I FINALLY have a date for Boston! YAY!
I'm excited, hopeful, nervous, but most of all....happy.
The seizure activity is still up. Nothing has slowed them down much.
As far as the seizures go, I'm kind of getting used to them. I mean as well as anyone can get used to seizures.
They happen, I rest, we move on.
The hardest part right now is depression. on August 12th, it marked one year of seizures.
One year when the life I knew....stopped.
I have continued to stay positive and hopeful through all 300 seizures, but it has gotten me a little down lately.
I miss driving. I miss having control of my life. I miss the outside world. I miss not worrying about falling on the ground and having a fit wherever I go. I miss work.
I have a beautiful home and am so grateful, but to be honest, I'm sick of sitting in it day after day...alone.
So, yeah, it has gotten me down. I'm really trying to dig myself out of it, just somedays are harder than others.
BUT I have a date for Boston, next month! Let's keep our fingers crossed that I find a doctor that knows what's going on and can help!
If you guys could say a quick prayer for that, I would be so grateful!
Talk Soon
