**This year has been testing but I'm now on a new journey and I couldn't be happier. When they found the growth in my brain in 2019 I never expected that my whole life would change. The growth was a size of a cricket ball. After some surgery they couldnt remove due to being weaved in the nerve endings on the brain. it but they reduced it size. Since then I've lived with epilepsy, poor memory, poor immune system and lost my hearing in one ear. The years after have been a battle as you can see through my upload history. It's been mentally draining and physically too. My seizures are clonic tonic and petit mal. All the accidents and injuries and stress wore me down being honest. For a long time I've been vacant. Uninterested in most things. But over the last year I've found so much appreciation for my life. I'm blessed to surrounded by an amazing family, friends and partner who look after me. They support everything I do and always have my back through thick and thin. I've been writing a plan for this year and have lots of goals to complete. Two months ago I saw my doctors and they've said I've now tried all the meds over the years and now we have to stick to the best mixture that has given me the least seizures and side affects. As well as ones that are ok with sickness and painkillers too. They then offered me a VNS device. I've explained it in the video! I feel like getting the Vagus Nerve Stimulator will be a good start and will be seeing my neurologist in two weeks. I will still have to take a lot of meds and that won't stop, but I'm very very lucky to have been offered this device.. so after a long time deciding I will be going ahead with it. I've spent so months in hospital so what's a short little visit hey!😅**

**I've been putting it off because I'm nervous about it all. But if it helps it helps. Life's too short though and you just need to appreciate how blessed we are sometimes. I hope you can all feel that way too in your lives. Anyway I'm rambling again.. i just want you to all stay in the loop as many of you care a lot and ask for updates, I thought this would be nicer!❤️

**Happy new year everyone! Wishing you all the best for 2024. Stay safe and enjoy your celebrations 🥳🎆**
