So we were watching that same episode of Crossing Jordan where she falls so gracefully to the floor and has her seizure. My husband, who has gran mals, asked if that's what his looked like. Sorry, but I laughed and said, Honey your's just aren't that pretty! Well, he had to agree Jordan IS much prettier than him, so it was feasable she couldn't have an ugly seizure. But, really, was it necessary to show the whole nostril thing? The explanation of the procedure was graphic enough!
All kidding aside, I hope you don't follow any more "story lines" and things are better for you!

ConniceB:/ Don't you just luv the dramatic effects they use to tell Medical stories. I guess if they showed it the way it probably is they figure it not as interesting. Ah well that's Holloywood screen writing for you. And I can only guess my seizures where never that graceful either.
