   we can only hope!

   Have no recollection of a tonic clonic seizure that resulted in me falling down 8 stairs and unconscious on the landing, which, was a blessing otherwise I would have crashed to the ground floor. Have no knowledge of time in hospital in and out if simple partial seizures and, what made it worse, the Doctor did not understand at all.

   I’m grateful to my fiancé and PA for being at my side to celebrate 🥳 and ensure my safety and explain to the doctor.

     Alison, you are true proof that “gratitude is the attitude.”

     I’m so glad there are advocates and love in your life.

   I just wanna see everyone have the same luck I’ve seen for the last 25 years. Even after 10 surgeries, the first one, my temporal lobectomy, makes me feel like one of the luckiest people in the world.
