I haven’t been walking either. I also need a reminder. I had a seizure Saturday and fell on a tile floor and split my head open so I had to get that tended to. not really serious but you know how head wounds bleed. I was supposed to go with my brother to pick up his medicine and I looked out and saw that he was here but I just sat back down and didn’t pay any more attention to him. He eventually came to the door and he asked me what was wrong, of course I said nothing. I was still post-ictal I guess plus my face was covered with blood.
I have been sleeping for the last couple of days which I normally do after a seizure.

Good grief, are you ok now? That sounds serious!

It is "no fun" falling and hurting yourself. I really hope you are okay. You'll be in my prayers. Take care and stay safe.

Hello,
Sorry to hear about the latest seizure and glad you were able to get up by yourself. Was wondering if you wear some kind of alert system or have a cell phone on you at all times. Health concerns and aging are the reason a lot of people have roommates but don’t know if you are open to that.
Anyway, you will be back to walking soon. Weather here in Florida has generally been ideal walking weather so it’s not necessary to rush out the door so early to beat the heat. High 50s or low to mid 60s most mornings which is perfect and energizing with low humidity. We have up and down swings...unseasonably warm and humid for a few days then typical cool days so it’s hard to acclimate. My face did feel frozen one day a couple of weeks ago when it was about 49 degrees .....no one else was out except dog walkers and I cut it short. Never really minded the cold but hate the wind and there is always a breeze in my area living so close to the water. There is no excuse today so off I go!
Stay safe
