Hello, My name Mixi, and I was born with epilepsy. I'm currently 21 but turns 22 in June this year, I have two jobs; childminder at a kindergarden and administrator as well as research assistent (current study is about edema and cancer, LKG, and earlier this week I got into university/college! I still fight my epilepsy everyday and lately it's been very tough. Now, we got this assignment to write an argumenting essay about any topic - Since I have it myself and think it's a very important matter, I decided to write an essay about Informing schools and work places more about epilepsy. My question is; What might be pros (good points) about it? What might be cons (bad points) about it? Since it's meant to be in impersonal text I'd very much appreciate your thoughts and opinions about this, because I myself can only think of why it would be good to inform schools and work places more about epilepsy! Thank you, Sincerely, Mixi

When I found Dr. Olu I was in

When I found Dr. Olu I was in desperate need of bringing my ex lover back. He left me for another woman. It happened so fast and I had no say in the situation at all. He just dumped me after 3 years with no explanation. I contact Dr. Olu through his website and He told me me what i need to do before he can help me and i did what he told me to, after i provided what he wanted, he cast a love spell to help us get back together. Shortly after he did his spell, my boyfriend started texting me again and felt horrible for what he just put me through. He said that I was the most important person in his life and he knows that now. We moved in together and he was more open to me than before and he started spending more time with me than before. Ever since Dr. Olu helped me, my partner is very stable, faithful and closer to me than before. I highly recommends Dr. Olu to anyone in need of help.

Hi Mixi,I feel like it is a double edged sword.  I have epilepsy and have been working as a neuroscientist since college.  I feel like even in places that study neurological disorders, I would be uncomfortable sharing my story, though some people might think that I am unusually uncomfortable about this topic compared to others.  I recently wrote a blog post about this if you would like to take a look:  https://neurobead.wordpress.com/2018/07/10/breaking-the-stigma/#more-2660.Best,Yana
