My father is in a nursing home because of a massive stroke almost eight years ago. He has COPD and develops pneumonia at the drop of a hat. I still worry when he starts with an infection, but it's nothing compared to the adrenaline-charged terror that used to come over me. I feel guilty that I am not as upset as I used to be. But I don't even really feel as guilty as I wish I could. I've been calling it burnout. I'm sure if I were you I would be burned out.<br /><br />Your daughter is beautiful.<br /><br />Came here via Ms Moon's blog.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-60379036684137049192015-01-01T10:23:41.303-08:002015-01-01T10:23:41.303-08:00Leslie said well what I would say.

Sophie must be so sensitive to it all. It may help her when your own energy simmers rather than spikes to meet a seizure. At the very least it may help you. Sending love, dear Eluzabeth. So much love. 37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-65427190358167686752015-01-01T04:36:48.968-08:002015-01-01T04:36:48.968-08:00I'm sure after you've been through it so m...I'm sure after you've been through it so many times, a certain numbness is bound to take hold.

I thank you for opening my eyes but I feel sorrow and exhaustion at what it must take out of you. I wish 2015 is seizure free for Sophie. I wish 2015 brings you your wishes come true.
