It was brilliant of you to give them your epilepsy website. Now all we have to do is hope that maybe they’ll look at it and LEARN something. Now that would turn tragedy into triumph. Congratulations on your being so pro-active rather than re-active. It’s an act of pure bravery.

It has to be heart breaking for a mother to write the final chapter of her son, sentenced to death because of his epileptic seizures, by the very hands of “authority”, who swore to protect, serve & uphold the law.
Just this week, desperately trying to recover from my last grand mal seizure, walking around town, confused, disoriented, dizzy, in deep headache & muscle pain, I noticed myself being followed for days by several undercover police agents.
Irritated with my endless physical pain, their crude presumption & constant shadow, I ended up confronting some & providing them with my epilepsy website.
Hopefully, they will come to understand my agony & leave me alone to languish in my own misery,
As for the poor fellow who died in prison, it’s sad to know, the very “authorities’ who swore to protect, serve & save our lives, could be as deadly as the Epileptic seizures we are forced to live with, EVERYDAY!!!
I hope & pray that the mother gets the justice her son has been denied from, by the very wicked “authorities”, who can NOT “protect & serve” to save her son’s life.

May his soul rest in peace.
