Great post. Too many points to feedback on at this moment, but what stood out for me us your devotion to your family. When you said "fit" do you mean diabetic seizure/diabetic shock? So there you are protecting your wife's head from the concrete shielding any impact as you yourself are in pain due to back pain etc. FFS that is heroic though you will undoubtedly say it is not. Guess the fusing has not hindered you as much as your brother. BTW Beans, when you did that Christmas ale video you showed great mobility and agility, no signs of pain. I just mean one would never know by seeing that!
"pause!".....

Yes seizures we call "fits" here in the UK, Scarring on the brain often leads to epilepsy which can be controlled by drugs but not completely and it still scares the shit out of me when it happens, because afterwards for about 10-20 mins she sometimes does not even remember who I am. It also means she cannot have a bath or go swimming without someone present in case of fitting and drowning. Many people with epilepsy have quite active full lives, I know a fiddle player who tours the world with a Folk/Punk band who has it. Anyone would do it for someone they love.

Is it like grand mal?

Is it like grand mal?

Yes exactly. Tonic-Clonic Seizure. She calls it "having a little breakdance"

I've had seizures, they are very weird. You have no idea you had one. In my case I don't know who I am or where I am after one. Oddly they have all been related to my psoriatic arthritis as it was meds docs gave me to try. I had a seizure due to a fever as a baby and when you have one seizure your brain is altered to where you are prone to another. Terrible thing they are, I had one at work and turned blue. Almost got my license pulled but it's been around six years now, after a certain period the medical community tells you not to worry. My heart goes out to anyone with epilepsy as they are some scary things. Usually you get that aura letting u know one is coming but not in all cases.

Oddly I was finishing a project at work Monday morn and I guess I pinched a nerve. I'm in more pain, should have called out sick

A guy with bad Tourettes next door to me has to whip his neck around like snake and has to shout "bazooka Joe!" Over and over, he is a lawyer and drives a Z3 and his house is worth about $900,000 (about £800,000), but when he is out doing yard work in his backyard he has to wear a neck brace to protect his neck. The other neighbor told me that this Tourettes guy will get whiplash by jerking his neck violently and MUST WEAR THE NECK BRACE. Yet he makes $275,000 per year in Manhattan (£240,000).
