Hi Sara and Sue,
It is hard to tell which is Sara and which is Sue. I've been a part
of another group since around, I think it was the beginning of Jan. I
want to go too this gathering in Seattle with you. Can I come along
for the ride?? I can't drive yet.
That is one question I have for you two. Its about your drivers
license. How are you able to keep your license even though you may
have had a seizure or two, say last month??? I have to be seizure
free for six months to even, or even maybe get my doctor to write a
letter for me to get my license. Do you tell your doctor that you've
been having seizures but still driving? After my first surgery, in
1997, I was seizure free for nine months and got my license back.
But, after my seizures came back, my license was taken away faster
then you can say "me". I've been seizure free now ever since I went
off Zoloft, but I have a feeling that Dr. Sloop is not going to
believe me when I go see him on March 5th. Which in fact, if I'm
still seizure free, it will be 6 months. But, how do you two do it
with out getting your license taken away??
But, I do want to go to that get-to-gether in Seattle. I am waiting
for a phone call from a place just a block away called Bruches' for a
job interview. I'll let you know if I get the job. Blain
