The EEG came back ok for the temperal lobe, which is where the trouble was before so they have cut back on the new tablet, which is for the Fibro, but can cause seizures. So while my body ajusts to this, I am in more pain again and cant concentrate for very long! So if you want to IM me, check the one at the bottom and see if I am there. Most days I am in the garden or playing with pets. It takes my mind off the pain for a while. I love you all and really appreciate the comments that have been left on my page! You guys are great!!! So even though my comments aren't like they use to be, you are still in my thoughts and prayers and know that I am still around! Take care and God bless! Love, thoughts and Hugs, DebrAngel xoxo

Four things you can't recover:

The stone........after the throw.
The word........after it's said.
The occasion........after it's missed.
The time.........after it's gone.
Knock, Knock… I knocked at heaven's door this morning.
God asked me...'My child, what can I do for you?'
And I said, 'Father, please protect and bless the person reading this message.'
God smiled and answered...'Request granted'.

If you believe, send this to seven people and the one who sent it to you. By doing this, you have succeeded in praying for eight people today. 'Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'

We may not talk alot but I see your picture and I know you are there if I need you! The end of this month I go to the neourologist in London and find out if it is the seizures back or just drugs competing against each other! So Please keep me in your prayers as I do for you!Take care and God bless my Friend! Love and Hugs, DebrAngel xoxo

At 2:04pm on March 18, 2009, DebrAngel said…: I know the St. Pactrick is a day late but yesterday was consumed with thoughts of my dad who died before getting to see Ireland and see where his ancestors came from! I am hoping that I will make the trip for him one day! But he now has a birds eye veiw of the places he only dreampt of! I pray you are all doing well! I have been having giddy spells and have had another EEG to see if the brain seizures are back and may have to reajust my medication! I go back to the nerologist next month and get the results! My Love and thoughts and prayers are with all of you! Take care and God bless! Love, DebrAngel xoxo

At 2:36pm on February 14, 2009, DebrAngel said…: Hi My Friend, Just stoping by to see how you are and let you know what has been going on with me. I have had to go back to London for an EEG, as the Neuologist thinks the brain seizures have come back! An effect of a new medication that I have to have so if they are back we will have to adjust the seizure meds. Here we go around in circles again! You take care and I wish you a Valentines Day filled with Love and Happiness! Love and many Thoughts, DebrAngel xoxo

We have had snow here in Southern England, which is pretty, but bad for our illness'! I have had broncitus and my nerologist thinks that my brain seizers are back! What one medicine helps it affects the other meds! So here we go again with more tests! Other than that I am fine! LOL. I love the way the lady in this comment puts things, she has what Lupus and Fibro and related illness do to our bodies down to a T! Take care and God bless you and know that you are in my thoughts and prayers! Love and Gentle Hugs, DebrAngel xoxo
