Saturday, April 26, 2008 | A Venting story

I guess I am worried today. Lately I've experienced very obvious short term memory loss. I was told it would happen. I honestly never thought I would notice it like I am now. I was hospitalized twice for severe spirals and during one of the stays in the hospital I agreed to ECT. I don't regret it because I think it helped me. But there was a price, and I'm experiencing that now. Recently my son told me that some of his buddies were all talking during lunch break and one of them brought up "the best halloween party ever" and they all started talking about it and agreeing, and it made my son feel wonderful. My son told me that he will never forget the party because we had cob webs everywhere, and I did a haunted hay ride for everyone on the tractor and the cart, and I took them through the trees up on our property and over rocks and there were sheets on the trees and scarey music playing and he said that I had a skeleton down on the tunnel that runs under the railroad tracks behind the house we use to live in. I didn't remember it. It was gone. I'm struggling a little with this and I'm trying to stay calm. I want to tell someone, my doctor maybe, but I guess I'm afraid.

 

I would like someone to talk to me about a similar experience and tell me I'm okay.

 

Feel free and your feedback is appreciated.
