Seizure Setbacks

The seizure set me back physically more than any thing else.  In particular the dislocated left shoulder set me to idleness and I became weak.  During this time the doctors had no good reason why I should have a seizure.  They scheduled an MRI with contrast for a few weeks in the future.  When the results came in on a Thursday, the Brain Surgery was scheduled on the following Monday (two days before Erin was set to get back from her mission).  Certainly, the mass in the brain caused the seizure.

I had a few problems during this period reading some words.  It was rare, but odd.  I found that in each case after I re-learned the work (examples were eyebrow and piece) it was back for good.

Once I started physical therapy on the shoulder and starting walking a mile a day, the fatigue very slowly got better.  Going into the Brain Surgery, I was still very very tired from the seizure.
