I’m alive!
And I remember who everyone is! Â The anesthesia has worn off, and my head is out of the fog. Â My headache is gone. Â I had a three hour nap when I got home which helped a bunch. Â Two ibuprofin can really do wonders. So… I think there’s a good chance that it will be business as usual tomorrow at faire (except I can’t drink). Â Thank you all for your good thoughts for me today.

It’s set in stone now. Â On Friday at 1:30 I’ll get my first zap. Â I will try to post Friday night to see how coherent I am. Â If I can’t, then I’ll have Lumpy post an update. Â I am bound and determined to be at faire this weekend. Â I don’t know how long we’ll be there, or how how late we’ll arrive, but dangit I’ll be there. Â Good vibes on Friday are much appreciated.

I never thought it would be me.. but it is. Â I’m going to be getting my brain zapped. Â No, it’s not like what you used to see in One Flew Over the Cuckoos nest. Â It’s a lot more civilized now. Â I am not sure how to feel about it all. Â On one hand, I’m very excited that something new might work for me and this makes me very optimistic. Â On the other hand, I’m terrified of the side effects and don’t know what is going to happen. Â I guess the unknown is always scary. Â So I should be starting my ECT on Friday if all goes well. Â This means that at faire, I may be a little “off.” Â I’m not sure at all how I’m going to react. Â If I get my first one this week, I will make a post so that people have some idea of how to react to me when I forget their name or just totally forget that I know them.
Wish me luck.
