Hello Bethanne and everyone. This be Blain again. I am going to talk
to my doctor about Depakote because, it is making me really
depressed, just about all the time. Maybe if I go off Depakote and
back on another that I have not taken in along time, I'll feel
better. About my job. I quit that job. They cut me down too only 5
hours a week, and the new owners of the store scheduled me for
Sundays, where I would have to walk all the way to work. But,
tomorrow I'm getting signed back up with WorkSource and Peopleworks
and finding a different job. Wish me luck. blain

Oregon for 11and a half years. I love it where I am as far as being
in the country here in Cottage Grove,OR. I lived in WA for 14 years.
then I got married, had 2 wonderful kids . then I divorced when I
found out my 1st husband was dangerous. then I moved to a safer
place that had a timed gate at the Kenmore Estates. Then I raised my
kids there til the end of 2nd and 4th grades. Then we 3 moved to OR
and stayed there til my kids were almost raised. I met my present
Hubby-Russell and married him 1 year later. We got engaged on 12-21-
02. We were married on 4-08-03. We have been going stronge ever
since.
> As for the drug Depakote, I have taken it in the past and it only
made me depressed. So I told my doc and within a few mos. I was on
something else. Now I am only on Tegretol XR and am decreasing each
mos with it. I am also on 1250mgs of Keppra. Now it seems to be
working some but the docs dont want to do anymore w/ it til after
the possible surgery coming up.

The place where I live at the nursing home has so many neat things
to do during this season. I really love it there now. I just hope I
can move to a low income place once the surgery and therapy is
complete there some time next year in Jan.

yours. Must go now. Bethanne
