That sure woulda been nice up at the cabin
Wolves, bear, big cats, coyotes and such
Considered it some
Just too busy trying to survive up there

Might be a gift for your son?
The two game cameras we use take about 8 batterers.
Cold weather does make short work of them.
I saw a fox last week,,may put a camera up to see where its traveling.
The neighbors let their chickens roam about.

Nice photos anyway, Gary. We don't use game cameras but we do have some cameras set up to photograph two legged varmints that go where they're not supposed to be.
@PeppermintPatty, you post some good game pictures do you use a game camera at your place?

Nice negotiating. By keeping your oar out you will empower her to take charge in their use.
By the way does your wife post here? I set my wife up to but she just doesn't seem to have it in her.
Yeah, it happens
Most the renegades up on our mountain know me, some have become good friends
But, the occasional townie hiker gets a pretty good education with the blast or two of my 12 gauge
Game Cams up there don't seem to last all that long in the weather, and is just another thing to maintain

No. The photos I post here are all photos I’ve taken. We have cameras. I’m sure they capture some animals. I’ve never once taken a photo from our cameras. I never really thought of it. We get deer come through our property almost everyday and they aren’t scared of us. The eagles I take photos of aren’t scared of me. They instinctively know I wouldn’t hurt them. My phone camera has 15 times magnification and then I often blow them up and crop them.

No
She's busy with her forums (knitting/crochet/cooking/gardening)
We did pair up on a cabin forum when we lived in the mountains
But that was a while back

After toiling in the back yard, I put tools away in the shop
Glanced at the feeder
A dove spread it's wings
The setting sun shown thru making the tail and wing feathers transparent
Quite the aura
Never a more perfect opportunity
All I can do is talk about it
The Nikon was in the other room
If I ever actually get 'the shot'
I'm printing a huge wall hanging

Same today
Missed opportunities
I think it's all a tease
I'm gonna have to get out the tripod and remote button, along with the wide angle lens and just sit there......waiting....alert

That was last July
They were here today
Sweet visit
Until Faith had a seizure
a grand mal
Lasted about an hour
Our son went to work
Have to position her on her side so she doesn't choke
Not easy when she's doing all those spasms
I've seen a lot
Never seen anything like THAT!
She's over it now
I'm not
They're headed out to refill her meds
valproic acid, clobazam and lorazepam
She's on several others but they're low on these

I’m not an expert on neurology /seizures but that seems like a really long one. And hard to watch, not (correct me if I’m wrong) being able to do anything except keep her safe til it passes.
.Yer right on
My son's been doing this for a decade now
Better than any EMT, and most practitioners
24/7
She hasn't had a grand mal for weeks, but always several small seizures throughout the day....and night
Nights are the worst
That's when Dravet kids die

My son is my hero
He's taken her a bit passed the typical age when Dravet children die
The next days, weeks, months.....hopefully years, will tell the tale
The seizures typically worsen...until they just quit breathing
Unless they out live it
It's a hope....and a continuous prayer
This occasion has given me a different look at my own malady of decreased eye sight
A better spiritual vision
This little one is so very precious
Every moment with her is such a blessing
Faith is on the right

Breath taking. Please post this spectacular scene on the forum too! Maybe in Photography?

Lovely girl! Such a tragic condition. Oh why can't they fix it!!! I feel so angry no one can.....so far. My prayers are with her.
It's a hope and many prayers
Not to belabor
But I couldn't help but see the exhaustion in my son's face, while he held her during her seizure
He'd never admit his fatigue
But
The lines on his brow, and the weariness in his eyes betray that
We pray for his continuing strength

I think I can see what you mean.
I'm heartbroken for you Gary. It's hell to see your child suffering.

Always is
He's her strength and Saviour
Had to administer CPR many many times
We told him how that grand mal affected us
He said it doesn't get any easier
So glad they can spend these days at the cabin
They love it so
It's our little missionary effort

Something about living away from people, where one can watch the cycle of life & death.
Prepares one for life's final step.
May peace be with your son.
