Have you ever woken up fully confident it was Thursday, only to be humbled by a robot telling you it’s actually Wednesday?

In Episode 8, Cassie navigates the "Infusion Brain" fog and shares the raw reality of the "Invisible Scoreboard." She breaks down her recent neurological test results—specifically the frustration of having a "Normal" cognitive score (25/30) while having an "Impaired" functional score (12/30).

We are also opening the doors to the "House of Fog," where Cassie and her husband are navigating marriage while battling spasticity and vertigo simultaneously. From fighting with insurance companies about transportation to the school bus leaving her daughter in the cold, this week was a lesson in system failures.

But there is a win: The "Car Nap." Cassie shares why pulling over for 10 minutes was a victory for her health, even if eating the crab rangoons later was a delicious, terrible mistake.
