Moving Update
Good afternoon!
Boy! I feel like our lives have been tipped upside down for almost a month now. Though I was in the hospital until late Monday afternoon, Stan, the girls, and many friends finally brought the last trailer full of boxes, furniture, etc to our new home yesterday. If you helped us in this move, PLEASE know that we simply could not have done it without your very kind help!!!
I have a bunch of unpacking to do now. Honestly, I don't even know where to begin. LOL!!! Stan and I have decided that this will be our last move until we move into the nursing home which will hopefully be a very long time into the future.
Before we began moving here, we purchased a brand new 6-burner stove, dishwasher and refrigerator with ice and water in the door. We expected perfection with these new appliances but were very disappointed when our dishwasher's computer panel went out after less that 6 loads of dishes were washed. The appliance store really let us down when they refused to allow us to trade this one for another new dishwasher. Then the repairman was not good about fixing it in a timely manner. I had no recoarse than to contact the manufacturer. I found a WONDERFUL representative who totally understood our problem and went right to work in getting it resolved. Thanks to her, the new panel was installed yesterday. YAY!!! But our story does not stop there. Once that was done, the repairman determined that another component was no good. He was to order it yesterday. Can you say L-E-M-O-N??? What's next??????
I'll tell you what's happening now. I am contacting the same lady from the manufacturer to see what she recommends. After spending a large amount of money on something like this, the least that you can expect is for it to work like it is supposed to. Right???
So, anyway, things will be great sooner than later. Now that we have all of our possessions in the same building, it'll be much easier to get things done. If you are ever bored and would like to help, just let us know. LOL!!!

Spelling
Just to let you know, my glasses are broken right now. You may find several mispelled words in my posts for awhile. I apologize for that now.

Moving Progress
As you know, we sold our old house at the end of June and have been either moving my mother to her new house or ourselves ever since. We are hoping that with the assistance of several of our frends who have worked tirelessly to get us moved to the new house, our move will be completed this weekend.
On evenings when we are not moving, Stan has been laying our wooden floor in the house. It has been very time-consuming. He began his work in the dining room a week ago. I am happy to say that he has completed the floor in the dining room and kitchen. His work has now begun in the living room. It is BEAUTIFUL! I just love the cherry color.
The girls and I have packed boxes at the old house and unpacked them at the new house. In the heat of the day, we've been painting the living room, kitchen, dining room, 2 bathrooms, all three bedrooms and foyer. I still have not begun the hallways or the reconditoning of the cabinets in the ktchen or bathrooms. I hope to do that startng next week.
Not eveythng has been wonderful. On July 3rd, we purchased all new appliances for the kitchen. Since we were still living at both houses, we had done less than 6 loads of dishes at the new house when the computer board on the dishwasher BROKE! So far, the replacement parts have not been installed and I am not a happy girl because of this. I think it is ridiculous that a brand new appliance that we paid good money for is no longer working...

Please continue to keep us in your prayers for a very smooth conclusion to all of this.

Lynn's Update
We met with my neurologist yesterday to discsss the progress of my journey since February when I had my VNS surgery to help me with my epilepsy. It has now been 6 months and the recovery has been amazng.
I went from havng a multitude of sezures every month to NONE. For the first time since August of 1981, I no longer embarrass my family, friends or myself in public by my "losing it". Gone are the day of people around me being concerned and having to call 9-1-1 for medical assistance. Because of the fact I no longer have seizures, no additional damage is being done to my brain.
Though all of this is wonderfuly, there have been additonal positives. The ongoing depression that I fought for many years, is practically all gone. Since we began moving to the new house, it has gotten a bit worse just because cannot handle the stress like "normal" people. I thought it might all be in my head but as soon as my doctor found out yesterday that we were moving, she asked Stan and I about it. She explained that that is one of the most dangerous times in an epileptic's life. She told me that I had to slow way down and just let everyone bring everything to me at the new house. After that, I should just take my timeputting it away so that I can relax more often.
We've been VERY fortunate and have had several friends volunteer to help us move the furniture, boxes, etc eto our new house. I don't know what we would have done without them. My brother-in-law has been helping us very often since the last part of June to get my mother's thngs moved out and our things moved in. I describe him as being 3 tornados twisted into one man. He is unbelievable at getting things accomplished in a very short amount of time. We cannot thank of these people enough for their assistance.
I've lost 31 pounds since February. I believe that thi is due to my depression lessening. I no longer feel the need to stuff my woes away. I have more much-needed energy. My family told my doctor yesterday that am a different person today. I am much more enjoyable to be with and my sense of humor has returned to my everyday life.
As you can see, I owe the Lord VERY much for giving the intelligence and abilities to scientests and doctors for developing this treatment for epileptics. Remember though, this is NOT a cure but it sure feels like it to me. LOL!!! I beg of you. If you or someone you know has epilepsy, please check nto this. It can mean a total lfe changing experience just as it has for me. In many cases such as mine so far, the patient cannot go off of his/he ant-seizure medication but the recovery is so very much better than with medicatons alone.
I have another 6 months to go before my device's electricity level has reached its highest point. My electricity was increased yesterday. So far, my voice continues to get hoars whenever my electricity is being generated to my brain. I had an increased cough yesterday which is also totally normal for awhile. I feel a temporary lump in my neck from my left ear and down for a couple of mnutes whenever the energy is being transmitted. All of this should lessen and possibly dsappear as time goes by. Even if it doesn't for me, it's darned well worth it for me. The positives definitely outweigh the negatves.
I thank those of you who have blessed me with your love and kindness throughout all of this snce 1981. Without your support, I don't know how I would have made it this far...
