Thanks. We've been coping with her seizures for many years, but lately the number of bad days she has each month have increased.

I have been to ShoWest a couple of times, and really
enjoyed both the event and Las Vegas. This year I canīt
make it, and was thinking of going to ShowEast instead.

Whatīs the big difference? Would you say going there
is well spent money, or should I wait and go to ShoWest
next year instead?

Thomas

Save your money...the ShoWest show is at least three times larger than ShowEast....CineExpo - Europe is about 1/2 the size of ShowEast. Las Vegas has plenty of entertainment options versus the "swamplands" of Central Florida / ShowEast where other attractions are kilometers away from the convention hotel compared to Las Vegas entertainment district which can be enjoyed by walking or short cab rides.

After months of tests, the doctors have at least ruled out brain surgery. [Roll Eyes] At one point they were looking for tumors or blocked arteries -- fortunately none were found. [thumbsup]

We're working to get the medication levels optimized, as the side-effects are often worse than the illness. But for now, balancing four different medications seems to be helping.

I won't be attending ShoWest, fortunately not because of any health issues with Betsy, but rather due to a shift in my project assignments toward new camera films.

John,
best thoughts for your wife; I know that there are medical options available today that my mother did not have 20 years ago.
Mark,
Skin diving in the springs are really not around the corner of the Orlando Marriot hotel [Wink]

It's good to see you're maintaining a useful point of objectivity about treatment; that can be hard to do. Do not abdicate the results & performance-related technical mindset, because unfortunately, doctors have the luxury of doing so when they need to. Best of luck to you both in such a frustrating & variably debilitating circumstance.
