Dr. hopes to bump up the Lithium and do away with the Trileptol. She told me that taking her meds reminds her every single day that she has BP. She said it would be so easy to be a crazed teenager and completely rebel because it still makes her mad. Wouldn't you just take it all for them? Symptoms, drugs, all of it, if only you could? So, I am going back to the positive side and thank the Lord that we have such treatment available and our children weren't born 100 years ago or in a third world country. How's that for a positive Thankful spin!? Happy T-day, we do have much to be thankful for.Cindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094311567888874509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4872069763804945028.post-52551034748241526062009-11-24T19:56:55.503-05:002009-11-24T19:56:55.503-05:00Wow!
