I’m so excited for you! Independence is so valuable. ❤️❤️
Thank you Penny! It really is. First Bene gave me independence and now driving!
CONGRATULATIONS 👍🧚🏻🌼🍀 that was so wonderful to see! I suffered from vertigo for three years after a neck injury. I feel you! One thing I found to make matters worse for me was the anxiety I caused myself worrying that I would start spinning, I had a lot of self induced stress which would become a self induced prophecy . I would go to bed with a dog leash attached to my wrist and a five gallon bucket at the end, rolling over in bed would set off the nystagmus then uncontrollable vomiting. I’ve seen you have nystagmus in some of your videos, and it makes me so sad for you.❤️ But this was a joyous day for you.
Thank you! Yes, this was a fabulous day! Yikes, you really had a rotten experience with vertigo too! I hate that for you. Vertigo is simply horrifying and truly hard to explain. The first time I had a real severe attack of vertigo, I truly thought I was actively dying and my then husband called 911 Apparently vertigo is one of the top (non-emergent) reasons people go to the ER because it is so distressing. Has the vertigo subsided for you at all? Thank you for your empathy, it means a lot. Yes, my eyes tell the tale!
Incredible Anyway yes the vertigo only occurs a couple of times a year now. The diagnosis was updated to BPVV begneign proximal vestibular vertigo. I was fortunate to see a therapist that specializes in balance disorders. She taught me some cool tricks to stop the nystagmus, as soon as I felt it starting I was instructed to hold both index fingers pointing upwards ☝️. ☝️about ten inches apart and force myself to focus from side to side, quite forcefully from one finger tip to the other and I could stop the nystagmus. That was a real blessing to learn that. Also I put many sizes of pillows in a long hallway, close my eyes and walk back and forth in the hallway, to retrain my propreiocepters. I’m sure I spelled that wrong! My tinnitus was very freaky, sounded like a large flock of birds taking flight. Our brains can sure do some things to mess us up. Have a good weekend!
Ah, I am familiar with BPPV. I'm so happy that you got so much help with the vestibular therapy! What a great trick with the fingers! THat is excellent. And hat a good idea to use the pillows. Tinnitus sounding like a flock of birds! Wow! I am guessing it sounds different to different people because I've heard it described in several different ways. The most common is ringing and whooshing or a white noise. Thankfully I've had very minimal tinnitus over the years although recently I've heard my heart beating in my right ear! Go figure!
Beep beep 🚘 bene seems like a great road trip partner
I felt everything you experienced! I haven’t been able to drive in ages!!! I hate Ménière’s!! I’m so full of different emotions right now. I’m rejoicing with you for sure! For so long I’ve longed for a Bene in my life! I know I’ll never have one have one and it hurts so! We live month to month and the struggle is real. 💔
Oh my heart is with you for so many reaasons! Sending huge hugs.
Incredible Anyway thank you sweetest !
So happy for you!!!!
Thank you!
Yay!! I wasn’t able to drive for about a year, I can now, but didn’t for a long time.... it’s so freeing!
So you understand how freeing it feels!
CONGRATULATIONS. That's the way I felt when in hospice and time for me to pass. That was just over 8+ yrs. 28th of July 2020.
BEING DEPENDANT ON SOMEONE, AFTER BEING SO INDEPENDENT....,. was the hardest 2.5 yrs of my life..... Even my hubby, had his Cancer. It have me a reason to live. I know it may sound weird, but taking care of my husband allowed me to feel needed again 🤟🤗🥰💜🖤
Oh Lesa! I didn't know you were in hospice! You are SUCH a warrior woman! It is so hard to be dependent. I am so sorry that your husband had cancer! I understand what you mean about feeling needed and it being a reason to live. We need a purpose in life. How is your husband doing now?
@@IncredibleAnyway he's doing good. he only has stage 2 emphysema, u been praying for it to be emphysema not Cancer. I got my wish. Now if he'd just throw them cigarettes away....... I can't make home want to stop. I quit almost 19 yrs ago. still got stage 4 small cell lung cancer 7.5 yrs later. Ii was in a bed for about 2.5 yrs in total. Chemo & radiation then chemo again. Then I was done. I left it in God hands & here I am today. I just celebrated 8years remission. The 228th July 2020 was my 8 yrs. Out. My husband's cancer was colon rectal cancer they got it all with surgery. He had a colostomy bag for almost 13 months. He had Finally, made it to 4 yrs in remission in October.
He dies worry me with the cigarettes. I'm so proud of you for grabbing life & getting out & driving around!!!! Great times will be had when you two are out running up & down the road. Keep practicing. It's like riding a bike u never forget how. Just gave to remember each car is set up different. Im sure u know. Focus & gave fun. Glad I was right Bene is a boy!!!!!! 🐕🐩🙈🙉🙊🐒🐾I hope those are tears if joy not pain. Little steps!!!! 🐾🐾🐾🐾
Oh Lesa, I'm glad to hear he is good. Too bad he hasn't thrown the cigarettes away yet! Congrats on quitting yourself. i HATE to hear you had lunch cancer. Oh m y goodness. I can't even imagine how hard that was. Thanking God for you. Congrats on 8 years remission! YAY! So happy to hear your husband's colon cancer was gotten with surgery. My mom had stage 3b colon cancer and she had surgery and 6 months (12 rounds) of chemo. She is a 10 years cancer free!
I'll be praying your husband puts those cigarettes down. THank you for sharing dear one. ❤️
@@IncredibleAnyway we are were wishing & praying that he trhows them nasty cigarettes away too. I hate the cig. Smell. It stinks. He a fine man & he has to want this himself. He said s funding it very hard to quit. Thanks for the continued support & prayers. .
Let's get u feeling better ..... Can I help in anyway! Besides support & prayers.
I have not driven in about 10 years. I originally decided to give up my license because of my symptoms and my medications. It's still because of this I don't think that I should be driving. But as you know it makes you reliant on someone else or public transportation. I'm so incredibly happy for you to be able to drive again!!!
💖
Oh wow! What a long time! I am with you and take driving very seriously. No one told me I couldn't drive, but it was a no-brainer for me. I refuse to put myself or someone else in danger. Being reliant is so hard. I think if those self-driving cars ever become reliable and affordable they would be an excellent thing for those with disabilities in giving back independence!
@@IncredibleAnyway good point and everyone thought of those self-driving cars!
I hope your health gets to a place you can drive yourselve someday.
People dont realize enough indeed what a freedom driving a car is.
I whas always told that i shouldnt try it. That i couldnt do it. I would fail.
But my husband incuraged me to try.
And i loved it!
I had about 20 lessons with a instructor that whas specialy traind to teache driving to disabeled people. So that helped for shure.
I didnt get a licence though as my brains problem with proceccing incomming information made it to riskey in the end.
But im happy i at least whas able to try.
Hugs Marloes
This is an older video and I am driving myself shorter distances. My goal is to start driving a little longer distances. As you say, being able to drive a car is such a freedom that most people do not appreciate!
I'm thrilled to hear you tried driving even though others discouraged you! Well done! That was so courageous and brave of you! I can understand why you were not able to get a license, but I'm so glad you had the opportunity to try. Thank you for sharing that with me!
Lots of hugs coming your way!
And yes I’m about 35/40 minutes from your city.
I can't believe how close we are!
Incredible Anyway I know!! We should get together one day!! ❤️
Yes! Absolutely! My doctor isn't allowing me to see people now because I am immune compromised. But when that changes, we should set something up!
What’s your favorite thing about driving??
My favorite thing about driving is the freedom to go and do what I want when I want. Of course, I still don't go in public places per my doctor because I am immune compromised, but it is nice to just pick up and go at will. The privacy of what I am doing is nice too.
