Just spent four months in hospital with a fractured skull, my third. picked up a postage stamp sized dead bit in my head. My brain must look like a railway map with all the scar tissue. I was crossing a road and poof, next i'm on the deck fighting with the beast in my head. I would have won the fight, but a car came along and hit me. So off i went to hospital, to be prodded, poked, and stabbed with neadles a million times. I wanted to scream. I'm tired of the beast in my head, i want to kill it. Every day the horrible little monster wakes up in my head and ruins my day. Because of the beast, i'm slowly having my body cave in on itself through breaks and dislocations. It's cost me an eye, and the drugs have given me ostioperosis. I'm losing my teath, and my marbles. Now the damn animal has robbed me of some brain. I dread to think what the fallout from that is going to be. I want to scream

I'm sorry to hear your body is taking such a beating from your seizures. That flipping beast seems to pop up at just the wrong time alot.Hate that thing,wish I could pull it out and stomp on it. I'll scream with ya. I hear it's a good way to relieve stess, as long as we're not screaming at someone else. So stomp on the monster and ruin it's day. Smiles on me. Take care.
