My Life With Epilepsy or Should I Say No Life?

Thu, 11/11/2010 - 06:55
I used to have a life. A real life, even with epilepsy undiagnosed from childhood. When I started to have bigger problems than I thought I could cope with on my own, I went to the doctor for help. That was the biggest mistake in my life. The rest is history and current events. I started a blog, partly to save my own life. I think it has. I'm alive and kicking (lol, the seizures make me do that). Please read it if you want to know my story. I would love to hear from the rest of you on this site. I complain about this site a lot and many of you probably wonder why I'm here. I'm here because of all of you. Thanks and I'm looking forward to your comments.

Hey Everyone, I just put up a big, long, post. It was a lot of work. It may not look like much, but I had to tweak the html by hand to get those pictures to link to the articles. That is a royal pain in the you-know-what. I pray that you read it. The words and the searches tell one story. The pictures and what they link to tell another. And the metaphors tell other stories. There's lots and lots there. I want to thank those of you who have been leaving me comments. It makes me really happy. It gets really lonely sometimes and the comments really help. I really need human contact and can't wait to get my life back so I can get more of it. I hope you enjoy the post. The link is at the end of this comment.

Hi Everyone, There are a bunch of new comments on my latest post. I'm not feeling very well today because I had a bunch of bad seizures last night. I'm so sore and weak I can hardly stand up. I have to try to find a place to live. I don't know how because the places that say they're six hundred a month are really six hundred a week when you make a serious enquiry. It's really bad. If I end up on the street, I'll be dead. I'm half way there any way. Click here to read the comments. Thanks for your interest. Baruch Hashem. Hoshia na.
