@gaylea1 Your children certainly are devoted to you, that's wonderful.

My husband took the reins and was here with me most of the time, but since my HE episodes were pretty distinct he did not need to be here all of the time. He works two days a week and continued to do that, and I was able to continue driving, shopping, and going to my health club. I even drove back and forth to our place on a lake in the summer of 2015 but I told my husband before the summer started in 2016 that I was no longer comfortable driving for a long distance which surprised him. Prior to an HE episode, I could feel it coming on so being close to home I would just get right back here.

My daughter did come and stay with me once when my husband went off to visit our son who was at that time living in CA. Since they both live a distance they did what they could do and I discouraged them from doing anything more since my husband was handling things very well.
