Thanks to this group for all of your honest comments and free exchange of info, ideas, compassion, and encouragement. You've helped me a bunch since the sudden onset of seizures for me last September. You help me have appropriate perspective in celebrating six-months seizure free this weekend. That means I can legally drive in my state, even though I'm overseas at the present time. Medications have helped build my confidence and reassure my family that I'm more stable. Life is risky no matter what or where! Hugs and encouragement to all! 🙂

Good Morning @marianne72
What wonderful news — six months seizure-free is a real milestone and very much worth celebrating! 🎉 It's so moving to read how far you've come since September, and how much your confidence and stability have grown along the way.
It also warms my heart to know that this community has been of some help in your epilepsy journey. 💜
I loved your last line: "Life is risky no matter what or where". What a nice way of seeing life and our challenges. This will surely stay with me and be incorporated in my little booklet of wise words.
Thank you for sharing this milestone with us! Wishing you many more seizure-free months ahead — and keep that positive spirit you've been sharing with us, it has surely played a part in reaching this milestone.
"Que pase lindo" ("have a lovely time") as I recently learned on my trip to Uruguay. 😊

P.S. Marianne, it would be wonderful if you could share these words of wisdom here as well:https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/1588025/
