Weekend Update

Been a crazy weekend. The Mrs. seizures are totally controlled now, nothing since the last one at 1am on Friday so looks like that nonsense is behind us. Still Friday and Saturday were pretty rough days. Seems the MASSIVE bump of anti-convulsants threw Mrs. Weer’d into a deep depression. Lots of uncontrolled sobbing, staring at the wall, and a voice that was barely above a whisper.

This morning wasn’t much better. Then for whatever reason at about noon suddenly she started turning the corner on it. She’s doing really well now. She won’t be 100% for a few days yet, but we all knew these side effects would be transient, as she had no ill effects (besides lack of energy) with the drug for most of her life.

I just didn’t expect the effect to vanish so quickly!

We’d both like to thank all for the well wishes and kind words expressed to us over these rough days. Also to the people who have created the chocker-block full fridge we have now. (Give us a few days to eat before sending more food please! :D) Things are looking up!

  4. Very good news indeed!

  5. Good for her. Hope that things even out.

  6. I’m sorry to hear about this set back. The last time we talked it seemed like all was going along according to plan. I hope the doctor can get the right balance of medications going for her.

    Best wishes.

      Well everything IS still going according to plan, just not the very best plan. We’re down to plan B, which is still much better than where we were.

      Its just not a fun row to hoe.
