There is a light at the end of this tunnel. . . . .

We have had a long winter's nap it feels like and I am finally not feeling so groggy and overwhelmed! Lot's of help has been visiting us at my folks - Jeff and Sheila, Margaret and Scott Favero from Sacramento, and Nate and Leti have arrived.
Just in time to see the NEW AND IMPROVED ROBERTO - without the ill-effects of KEPPRA
we have been dealing with since January - Finally convinced the Dr. that it was NOT FOR HIM and causing RAGE and UPSET that he didn't need, my mom didn't need and our family didn't need, all for what - double seizure medicine? Once I realized that he was only going to get worse as we decreased the dilantin (original seizure medicine) that was much more sedating - but at least he was healthier/happier/willing to participate with most activities - AND WHAT MUST HAVE BEEN GOING ON IN HIS MIND? I felt sorry for him being so upset and frustrated and not even remembering the next morning what he had been thru, so it was time and it is over -
THANK GOODNESS for the little voice that told me to keep track of everything and it might help us later, hope no one is wondering what or who or where that little voice came from! I have been very aware that Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ have been very aware of our needs and the situation we were dealing with and so many things have been taken care of because of their love and the sweet people that have come to our aid -
We had the evidence and information we needed to make the decisions we have and everything is making a turn for the better - We just hope we can continue to rehabilitate Dad's brain injury and improve his speech - he is stronger than ever, healthier than ever and HAPPY most of the time. SO THANKS TO MY CHILDREN AND HUSBAND THAT HAVE SUPPORTED ME IN THIS EFFORT and our extended families and friends that have kept us in their prayers daily!
