Oh, Trish, that really sucks! And I know how annoying platitudes can be (no matter now well-intentioned). Very hard to know what to say... but here's wishing you a stress-free recovery, and good health for the future.
Oh, Trish, I am so sorry! Neurological injuries seriously suck, I know myself, because I am injured, and I understand the sudden incapacity to multi-task, cognitively process, balance, hear, see and so on that come alongside it. The invisible stuff that everyone else takes for granted but only those who had to endure it, truly understand. You will adjust and the only purpose in it, is really the unfairness of it alongside the tyrannical policies that may/may not have caused it (I myself have been harmed by a needless shot of MMR being lied to what I was being injected with). You are not alone, hang in there! Try to seek non-conventional help if possible alongside the conventional stuff. Study, research the symptoms, stay informed and keep all medical records, if at all possible. It's a big puzzle sorting it out, but trust you will solve it. Sending you much love and healing! xoxo
Paulina that is so kind thank you 🙏 ♥️ I will definitely check out all avenues of treatment, I am much more open to alternative therapies now than I ever was before, and I intend to be much more proactive in the management of whatever this turns out to be. Your message really cheered me up ☺️
First of all, I am so sorry that you are going through this. I know that not being able to drive can be a terrible thing.
My then 16 year old developed epilepsy 10 days after his first covid booster (so after his third covid shot). I didn't want him to receive any covid vaccines, but my husband was full of fear and my son wanted to comply. Also, we live in Canada where they forced people to take at least 2 covid vaccinations in order to continue work. In my son's case, he needed at least 2 covid shots in order to enter arenas to play hockey (his sport).
His first seizure, 10 days after his third covid shot was an ocular seizure. He went blind in both eyes for 20 min.
And then 5 weeks after his 3rd covid shot, he had a grand mal seizure, and then he continued to have over 20 seizures (despite starting anti-seizure medications) for a period of a year and a half. His epilepsy has been under control for the last 12 months, but he needs to take 8 anti-seizure pills a day.
To say this has been devastating to our son and our family would be an understatement. This delayed his driving by 2 years. Thankfully, he has now been back to driving in the last 6 months, but every time he is on the road, it is stressful. Same thing when he goes swimming in the river with his friends.
Thank you so much for all of that info. I will read all those links and get as much info as possible to deal with this. I’m so sorry to hear about your son, I hope and pray that he remains seizures free from now on, but it is an awful stress and worry especially for you as his mother 🙌🏻😔

Trish, so sorry you’re going through this. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. We all need help on occasion but I know how hard it is. Take care of yourself and wish you a speedy recovery. X
Thank you so much Michele 💛 You’re right, it’s not easy asking for help, but I’m slowly learning to lean into it (even if it still feels strange). I’m doing my best to rest, reset, and take things one day at a time.
My husband is jab damaged. I treat him myself with R+ alpha lipoic acid curcumin and berberine as well as ubiquinol and garlic extract. It works. Surgery didn’t want to know!
Two heart attacks an aortic aneurysm and a clot on left leg as well a rash on both legs for 18 months. Barbaric! Neuropathy in legs as well. Only thing now is legs are numb but everything else seems ok.
That tough and rough, coming so suddenly. I hear you saying: I’m ready to navigate through this. Life will change. I will grow. You are being shaped into an Overcomer.
You’re in liminal space right now. This is and feels like a crisis. But it is laying down a pathway to vocational renewal. Be at peace amidst turmoil and you’ve passed first base.
Be encouraged by grace. God’s peace to you.
Ps: you perhaps know: if jabs have played a role, options exist to reduce the worst aspects.
Thank you Havakuk. I am looking into all sorts of alternative treatments, spike detoxes etc as well as the normal route, (it will be Months before I get seen by a medical consultant anyways due to the waiting lists in my trust area, both the public and the private system is overwhelmed) I need to develop the skill of patience, not a quality I possess in large amounts 😟
Hi Trish - Life sure does suck sometimes 😫 Many years ago, as a 40 year-old and a single parent to two teenage girls, I ended up in hospital for a year (due to an old back injury); they were doing their Inter and Leaving Certs, so not ideal timing, especially with no family backup 😢. Being haunted by 'why me?' (I have since learnt that good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people), for some reason, I started reading Jung and subsequently the Stoics (Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, Seneca, etc.). What I learnt (and continue to learn at age 80), especially from the Stoics, is how to face Life's many challenges... their single most important practice being to focus on what we can control - we can only control our choices and actions. Also, we grow through adversity - how we respond to it is the key. Stoic philosophy represents action and is hard ongoing work but, for me (and what suits me might not suit you), the Stoics are invaluable in guiding me towards a deep-seated contentment. Good luck.
I love this reference to the Stoics and their pragmatic rather tough philosphy. Thanks for this and for your honest piece Trish. This whole situation sounds very difficult, yet look at all these people loving you up just for sharing it. The universe sure is funny sometimes.
Back to the Stoics: don't concern yourself with things you can't control. Like the past and choices made by the former you. Your duty (as they say) is to serve this moment as best you can, just like always. For us go go go types six months on the side lines sounds like hell.
But hell is what we make it. There will surely be some heaven in there too. Keep us in the loop so we can love you and ourselves all the more.
Thank you Garrett. That’s it exactly, I’m a go go go type who now has to learn to slow the heck down and reassess how I live my life. I’m overwhelmed by the support and advice from people on here, people who don’t even know me who have taken the time to comment and wish me well. Honestly there is so much good out there in our world 🙌🏻☺️
Thank you Eleanor - I have a couple of stoic philosophers on my bedside table which I hadn’t gotten around to reading but I certainly will be giving them a read now, my daughter absolutely loves Marcus Aurelius so I’ll start with him and then try the others on that list. Thank you, you’ve overcome many challenges too obviously and have gained a lot of wisdom. I need to lean into this and find a way through it. 🙌🏻
From the little bit I have gleaned about you through your writings, I feel quite sure you will overcome this challenge and emerge the stronger for it. My favourite Stoics are Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus - from a Roman Emperor to a freed slave... both amazing

Thanks for your kind words, Trish. I hope that same for you - that you will remain seizure-free.

Try Epictetus. He’s the straight up

I’ll get reading and report back 👌🏻♥️♥️
✅... being a "go go go type", no pressure! ... remember to smell the flowers along paths' journeys 💐
That’s a new skill I need to learn 😅
Oh Trish what a bummer. Sending hugs and well wishes xx
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the kind words ❤️ Feeling a bit brighter today xx
