If you’re reading this blog, you’ve been getting wave after wave of ideas and opinions from yours truly and that’s about it. Given that I have a limited viewpoint, I wanted to get a few more voices in here to provide additional perspectives, give you some additional awareness from other people who have epilepsy. And just remember that while today may be the final day of NEAM, don’t decide that you don’t need to be aware anymore because we’ve reached the end of November. Everyone who has had epilepsy over the last 30 days will likely have epilepsy during the other 11 months of the year as well. We don’t want your pity, just your understanding and acceptance.
It’s not a disability, it’s a challenge.
Knowing you’re not alone in this journey is important.
Since 1990, I have been approaching my seizures from a variety of ways: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. I trust and have faith this is all part of my classroom.
