I joined a cool group for artists with epilepsy



Epilepsy Awareness

I've had petite mals from early childhood and Grand Mal seizures since I was 16, 10 days after my Mother commits suicide. They said they were psychosomatic, {just in my head} lol

I had seizures till I was 26, got pregnant, had baby, had seizures that day, STOPPED having seizures for almost 16 years, 2 weeks short of 16 years, started having them again, very badly!

No one knows why, must have just been in my head! lol

That's been for six or seven years now, in between I lost 260 pounds, rolled my car, broke my neck and had to wear a halo!
Needless to say the head trauma has NOT helped my seizures!

I am no longer able to drive, both fear and not having a seizure for longer then six months prevent me.

I honestly think my seizures have a lot to do with my manic need to be creative.

My first neurologist told me 90% of her seizure patience are creative.

The worse my seizures get the more art I'm doing!

I guess somethings happen for a reason.
I'm just grateful to be alive and able to do my art.
