@as72 know that i appreciate the birthday wish and asking what i would do. Lots to think about but i will give you my opinions- 1st- id do the 4 months and go for the odds, as to seizures depends what kind and can they be controlled, I got bumped up om my Keppra .25 and its been working at keeping them at bay. 2nd its the holidays and i for one would not want to spend them in the hospital , i might request 3 months not 4 and let the family know my reasoning. Lastly life is just too short to not want to enjoy every moment feeling alive. I have sent a prayer to be able to find true love again and want to live another 30 years and some. as to heal time on me its been two years and i am actually fairly happy. just little things now but i am enjoying family. feel free to call me anytime or message me with questions. Thank you, Randy
