Apologies

Post by Easydrinker »

I am aware that in the last 24' ish hours, I have been online here and may not have made quality posts.
For this, I apologise.
So, just this one tonight.
My meds. have been upped, and this makes me feel like the bottom of a Parrot cage.
I hope to be back on sparkling form soon. :lol:
It is all down to my local Neurology Dept. trying to help get me back on the road, literally.
But I will feel like shit for a few weeks.
Roll on xmas day, all should feel good then.
But the DVLA are so bogged down, it could be Easter before I am allowed to terrorise streets where you live :)
Stand tall, walk straight and look the world right in the eye.

From what I've gathered from a couple of your posts, you are properly in a dark place Robert. For what it's worth I'm sure that a lot of us on here wish you all the best with whatever treatment you are having. I think you may have my phone number and if you ever want an ear to bend I'm here...as you say "chin up & walk tall".

Ice.

ps Mrs Ice sends her best wishes...& XXX ;)

Robert,
Don't know your situation exactly, but understand dark places, been there too, both of us (me n wifey).
We wish you a speedy recovery, and am not upset by any of your banter.
Chin up mate, take your time, and stay safe.

We are in similar places fella. You know where I am if you need an ear to bend
Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

I hope we can talk to each other when we need to.

God knows, I have needed an ear to talk to in the past.

We are a loosely connected family in some respects. I hope.

Thanks all.
You REALLY do not know how much those responses meant to me.
I am draggging myself back on track.
It is good to have mates. :)
And good to know that someone gives a shit.
Back to the everyday.

I know that this site has a LOT of readers, not so many members.
I don't give too many F's. if the information that you glean from this site keeps you safe, without you saying hello.
Just happy that you are safe.

When I started out, pre-internet, knowledge was hard to find.
The mistakes that I made back then, horrendous and stupid.
How I am still alive remains a mystery.

If you simply come here and read, and take away something, I am happy with that.
But, join us and ask a question, expect a dozen answers to choose from or consider.
As long as I post here, there will be no adverts or cookies.
We are a not for profit, all volunteers, all trying to help home distillers site.

I would like to see a few of you add your names to the roll, should you feel able.
Take the Xmas break to consider.
We will still be here.

Early Seasons Greeetings to all.

Robert.

So, the 11th Dec. last year was my last epileptic seisure.
Tonic Clonic.
Painfull, and put me on the floor twitching.
The next day I started on meds.
Nothing since :) One whole year :)
Spoke with Neurology last week, they are happy, having upped the meds slightly, for me to apply to get my drivers license back.
Phone apt. with GP tomorrow, to confirm.
I live in the middle of nowhere, 4 miles from the nearest bus stop.
!4 months relying upon the kindness of a friend is getting hard.
And just as the light was shining,along comes Omicron, to slow, or stop everything .

Bah, fucking humbug.

Been here before, I will survive.

I am still alive, which is something.
Sadly, an awful lot of folk are not.
We are going through dark times.
