Update, Saturday, August 30:
We go next Wednesday to the Epilepsy Center of North Carolina or whatever it's called, which is basically the #1 place in the state for this type of thing, which ironically enough is located in the same set of buildings that I've had to take my younger brother to for the past 3-4 years for some sort of sensory-related therapy, so I know where it's at.
She usually has between 3-6 episodes a day, some of which are more violent than others. With my desk in here in our bedroom, I can keep an eye on her in the mornings while she sleeps so I can get more poker-related stuff done during the day it seems.
Thank you Stars Planner for your one-click sit-out-at-all-tables feature.
She has gotten to the point that she can tell about 15 seconds before it starts that she's about to have a seizure, which is quite +EV for her health since she situate herself away from stuff she could hit her head on or whatever.
Michelle has a life-long history of panic attacks, though she hasn't had one in probably 4-6 weeks at this point, and I think dealing with that since she was in preschool hardened her mentally a bit, so she's been dealing with this better than I would have expected. I think Michelle's mom is taking it worse than Michelle is. She calls us 3-4 times a day to ask how Michelle is doing.
I've been able to get back on a somewhat consistent schedule for poker. I'm studying 3-4 hours/day and playing 3-4 hours/day, about half 50nl and half 100nl. I basically play 50nl when I feel like spacing out, and play 100nl when I feel like paying attention.
