Well I understand from various sources that my messages have not been getting through - I have been pressing the wrong buttons, so here I am trying again.
Here is the 'low down' on the state of play. I seem to have developed Grand Mal Epilepsy and have just been in hospital for a fortnight after a very bad fit not nice for any of us. I was in Darlington M|emorial Hospital -delightful staff from all over the world - lovely doctors- lovely food and nothing at all to complain about. Now bit by bit my drugs are being changed. I am feeling strange and not thinking straight.
Thank you all for your concern and good wishes. I will be back when I feel well enough. In the meantime much love dear bloggy pals - missing you.

The drugs for epilepsy can make you feel you can't think normally. I had to take the epilepsy drug carbamazepine for years (for trigeminal neuralgia) and hated the way it made me feel. I hope the feeling settles down soon as you get used to them. Take care.
Oh ! So sorry to hear all this. They'll soon have you sorted ! Hugs Debbie 💐 x

I am sorry to hear of your health issues and I hope they settle on the necessary medicine combination for you. We all just want you to get the rest that you need but are grateful that you were able to let us know how you are doing. Take care. Ranee (MN) USA

You’re readership and comment section has grown considerably
What fun..
Lovely to have you back deArheart x
Lovely to hear from you. Love Jan Bxx
Oh Pat. How wonderful to see this post. It has positively made my day. Rest up and know that you are much loved.
So very reassuring to learn directly from you what caused you to be away from your blog for such a long period of time. Thank you for putting my mind, and those of so many others, at ease. I am sure it was not an easy task for you blog that this time. I have learned that following the doctor's orders and informing the doctor of any changes in my physical and mental condition that I would notice helped me on my road to recovery. I hope you are resting easy knowing that you are greatly loved by so many bloggers and folowers of your blog. Stay positive and try to return to your normal daily routine when you are able. Think of the comments left here for you as Get Well cards expressing love to you from both near and far. Be safe. Be well. Be Happy. Hugs!
Just a quickie to say how wonderful it is to have you back. Prayers and love continue for a good recovery. Take good care and all the time you want. Knowing you are there is joy enough❣️
Big wishes for your well being and recovery, with different meds to see what works best for you. Thank you so much for letting us know how you are now. We'll wait patiently till you're better.
It's so good to see that you are back home, safe and sound. I can imagine how changing meds and being out of your normal routine could be trying for you but time should put that right. Take it easy and be patient with yourself (that's as hard, if not harder, than being patient with someone else). We will all be patient while waiting for your return to blogland.
Sending you lots of love and best wishes, Pat.
Your positive nature shines through in your latest post, as always.

So good to "hear" your voice, Weaver! Grand mal seizures are awful. My husband had a few when his diabetes meds were messed up and it was terrifying. Be well, and we will look forward to hearing from you when you are able.
So great to have you back. Take care and best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Not a nice way to spend your 90th birthday! Sorry to hear about your seizure and hope they can get your meds sorted so you feel better soon. Wishing you the best, Pat!
So glad you're back and on the mend. Onwards and upwards. Cheers Cathy x
Delighted to see a post from you. Happy belated birthday wishes, take it easy and enjoy the good food and attention from the hospital staff. Wishing you a speedy recovery and look forward to more posts from you when you are feeling well enough. Sending you love and light. Fiona.
Lovely to hear from you Pat. So sorry you've had such an unpleasant time but good to know you were well looked after. Hope the new treatment will soon start helping you to feel like yourself once more. Love and best wishes.
So lovely to see you back where you belong. Take it slowly. We can wait.
Very good to see you back again and I wish you all the best in getting things regulated. Trust me. It will happen. I know. I'm on lamotrogine and it works well. I do not have the grand mals but go through a stage of not making new memories.
You are much loved Pat and I think we are all so glad you are recovering.
Oh, Pat, I'm so glad you're back. Wishing you well, and belated happy birthday.
Welcome back, dear Pat. Take good care of yourself. You are so loved and admired!w
So wonderful to hear from you, Pat. Encouraging to know that you are improving. And, how uplifting it is to find SO MANY people in agreement on any subject nowadays! People scattered across the globe are all sending you their love and appreciation. I join them, one of several from Texas. Hopefully your meds will get sorted and you will feel better.
Extra delighted to see a post from you today and to "hear" your voice!!!
Please know we're all cheering you onward and you're held dear/loved by so many (many who rarely comment, like myself).
Be patient with yourself, grant yourself grace, and take whatever time is necessary to heal and become whole again.
Hugs and love. I hope they get you sorted soon. How frustrating for you. More hugs.
Lovely to hear that you are home. You have had a really rough time. God Bless and get well soon. Take care xx

Wonderful to hear from you, big sigh!
I don't think I've ever left you a message but I am glad to hear you're doing better.
Oh my goodness, welcome back Pat. We were all so worried about you. My gut feeling did say hospital and even epilepsy. What a nasty thing to develop so late in life. Hospital not the best place to spend your big birthday either. ((HUGS)). Take it easy. Jennie in Wales xxx
You will never know how much your thoughts and messages have meant to me - At least for the time being the combination of all your messages, plus a plethora of very handsome young doctors!! lovely helpful young nurses - many of them from places like Latvia - all with good English. The food was good- no complaints at all. I went back yesterday for yet another scan and my druges are being gradually changed. Now I take things easy and hope things improve - time will tell but ninety good years means I have had a good shot at life so what will be will bexx
Thanks for the update Pat. As usual excellent words of wisdom from you, along with a smile-inducing comment (very handsome young doctors!). Jackie in Georgia USA
So very sorry to hear that you have been in hospital. Glad you're home now and hope you're soon feeling much better.
It is a good way to look at things....and doctors! You are a funny old dear.
