And things got more interesting. Not in a good way.

Partial seizure in the shower the other day. Full-blown left-side seizure Thursday. Thankfully Melissa was in range to hear me call out for the full one, and get the nasal spray in time to stop it. We were already headed to Schar for an Avastin drip, which put us across the street from Fairfax hospital, so they were able to do a CT and make sure nothing was going terribly wrong (brain bleed).

On the negative side, my employer, (did I mention their IT department is terrible), decided to involuntarily separate my employment from them. The technicality being that their payment system was recently “upgraded” and made terrible (worse), so I’m struggling to figure out how to pay them my premiums. Oh yeah, my mailbox rusted out completely and is gone (same thing happened at the townhouse in Manassas Park), and I found out they’re the responsibility of the HOA, and that lady doesn’t give a shit plus she hates me so there’s that.

More later.

And another week goes by.

My employer decided today that I should be involuntarily separated from my employer, which I knew was coming, it just took a lot longer than I expected. And it has implications for my insurance, medical, Optune and dental, all of which has monster price tags. We’ll see how it all plays out, Cobra gets involved at some point. Oh yeah, our mailbox rusted out (again), so Melissa is at the post office picking up whatever we have waiting for us. Good times. Thankfully I have support from the family and my insurance handler knows what she’s doing.

And I’m back again. Another MRI completed (yesterday), the doctor called it stable which is a good thing, I did have another (minor) seizure about a week ago during a shower which was less than optimal. But, I was sitting down so there was no damage done, so there’s that. I’m walking comfortably on my walker which is nice, even if my strength is less than all there. Oh yeah, I picked up a 55″ TV because my former 50″ was old and primarily blue/black which sucked trying to watch anything less than bright. New one is a major upgrade, even if setting it up was a real bitch. Still an upgrade.
