Poet with Seizure disorder SUDEP

Hi, all. This story was in my local on-line newspaper. A young poet passed away after she stopped taking her meds -- they interfered with her ability to concentrate on her writing. I thought the story was worth sharing, but also, given her experience with seizures, her poetry might be relevant. I haven't read it, but plan to find a copy of her book.
