Thank you all for your words of support. I feel I have done a pretty good job of adjusting to the situation, but sometimes I just break down, and that's what happened last night. It's good to know that I have a place to go (this forum) to vent.
Thanks again.

peace

Nothing wrong with breaking down once in a while. You have quite a load to carry. Sometimes you have to let loose to relieve the tension. You need to stay healthy too.

You have a beautiful daughter. We don't know why things like this happen, and I know that must make it even harder. I completely understand how frustrating it must be to not be able to take away her illness.

You should always remember that your daughter knows how much you and your wife love her and even though she can't communicate with you, there's a special bond there which she understands. You are doing all you can, and don't ever feel like it's not enough.

I'm glad there's a support group for you and it looks like you're using it. That's a good thing.

I will pray for your daughter and your situation. Your fellow AT'ers are here when you need us.

You are helping her as much as you really can! Just continue to be her loving daddy. Comfort her as much as you can. You sound like a good father and you just need to be strong for your daughter. That's all you can do!

Your little darling is very lucky to have two obviously loving, caring parents - and you are lucky to have her, too. My heart goes out to you and your family.

one of my cousins seemingly became an epileptic when he was about 13. it was really scarry. We were sitting around as our two families eating supper or something, and he all of a sudden was on the floor twitching, and that was the first Grand Mal seizure that he ever had.

thoughts and prayers go w/ you.

Your daughter will be in our prayers today. Hope she lives a full life despite everything going against her.

<knock on wood> I have two boys, and both of them have been as healthy as a parent could ever hope. </knock on wood>

I can hardly imagine what it's like to be dealing with what you are, maxx... But "hang in there", is pretty much the only thing we can offer. There are a ton of people out there who were given the probabilities of never be able to 'x', and have overcome their prognosis.

Thank you all so very much for the words..... I do appreicate the thoughts, prayers and well wishes!

As far as the caugh goes fausto, I wrote that message a long time ago when we were trying to raise money, and before I knew that sort of thing was not acceptible on this forum..... I have not asked since then, nor will I ever again, for any type of monetary support from anyone on this website.

Thoughts and prayers are just as good as $$ :)
