Getting by on 10% (and bras with fur!)

Hi.

I sort of spent a lot of the day near the bed; didn't get out to see the Cannons, sorry! Linda asked how I was after I had my fifth or sixth seizure and my second extra heart stabilizer pill in four hours and I said, "About 10% to be honest."

"Ahhhhh!" She said and went to talk on the phone to Cheryl (they are always plotting things).

I have been trying to be here, like supportive and attentive partner for Linda and get the books done for the book faire. Plus to follow up and SHOW I am a spouse committed to Linda over illness; to spend time like we did last night, watching a film together, holding hands. It is just that, doing that actually uses up more energy than I have. So this is me, staring off dazed, because it turns out that there is a fine line right now between "snuggling" and "passing out." I have to believe this will improve with, um, time or something. I think there is a doctor's appointment tomorrow.

I also think Linda and Cheryl are trying to keep me mostly away from Doctor's (and Specialists) because that gives me busts of adrenaline which make me....well, like me, spitting fire and using words long enough to use as timber beams. Problem is, when the adrenaline runs out, which it does sometimes just after, but sometimes just BEFORE my big point.....FACEPLANT!

So I have a plan, you can see it here in this picture. Besides the fact that her room is snowing (she is obviously heat intolerant like me), I have two resolutions. First: Minions and Second: Get more fur lined and fur tufted bras and corsets to wear because when you ARE heat intolerant like me and have to um expose the, er, upper torso? That is when having those tufts of fur look really cool!

Oh, yeah, the Minions, I just wanted you all to notice the important fashion choice first! Every evil queen and every person in books on fairy tales has minions. This I think they are a perfect solution to my overexerting myself ALL the time. This way I can build up strength AND conquer the world......er, I mean continue my projects of philanthropy! The problem is in all the books, I have not found where one GETS your minions. I have looked in the yellow pages under MI for Minion and even LA for Lackey, or Si for Sidekick, but Nada. Quite honestly I think having a lounge chair, a really good neck choker for that command presence and bra with fur tufts and host of minions would make my life a LOT better. So if you know where they are kept, please direct me?

If the Minion plan falls through, I guess I will try to get by, like the rest of us (oh THAT again, I am TIRED of getting by like the rest of us, I want MINIONS! I want FUR BRAS!). By which I mean, with a little encouragement from my friends, and letting Linda and Cheryl and some others know that for the next couple days, it will be hard going. Probably because I did a 10K during one of my Grand Mal's or the equivalent. I did not however receive a ribbon, regardless of the fact I won (if you would LIKE to send me a ribbon for the Remembrance Day Elizabeth McClung Seizure 10K, please DO! And the same goes for any fur lined or fur decorated bras, unless you actually BUY them at a place where pole dancing is going on - not that I am against that wardrobe, actually having a bra that would stay on while I upside down AND be strapless would only be a benefit I think!).

Just wanted to update, albeit late, because, you are my friends and I am sorry I didn't get back to your kind and heartfelt responses to my last post. But I will, it will just take a bit longer. So please, a little patience, a little encouragement (and a Minion, hey I'll even take an Urchin at this point!).
