Although it may be difficult do it any way
There are days and nights that arent always the best and then there are days and nights that are okay and then there are days where you just want to do it any way.. This was one of those days.. It was mikes Birthday and I so wanted to go and enjoy a family walk in the forest near our house with him on this amazing day. The night before was a difficult one for Matt having a really bad seizure, falling off his bed and banging up his head and hurting his jaw. His is completely out of it.
Waking up and finding out Matt had a difficult night is never any fun, when he is groggy but mostly happy, with sores on his face hearing the stories of who helped and how and knowing I am so very blessed to have so many people in my life to help me and Matt out..
Although there are times I can not take Matt anywhere there is also times we are unsure if we want to go due to the challenge it may bring and depending on how bad he has hurt himself.
He is out of it and can not focus or continue a sentence sore head where he fell on it scratch on one side of his head and a cut above the eye on the other.
We desided to go anyway and take him for a nice outting. Yes it will do everyone good to get out.
As we pull into the parking lot I realize Matt has locked his jaw, sometimes this happens after he has a seizure it takes us awhile to try to help him but he cant shout it. Maybe lets walk and it will relax its self and it does so as we walk through the trail I keep Matt close to me, sometimes he just cant stay up with the others.
It all turned our really well and even on the way back I got a video of Mike hold Matts hand to help him feel better and keep him with the group we dont always have this Matt but its okay when we do...
Take chances ask for help when you need it and get out there and have some fun..
