[epilepsy] Re: (epilepsy) Stupid People who think seizures are funny

Hi Barefoothorse,

I'm sorry I can't remember your real name. I'm glad that you are
overcoming your anxiety and going out and doing things that you used
to avoid. What type of seizures do you have? I wonder because you
mention helping yourself during seizures, and that confused me a bit.

Also, in your last sentence are you saying that Shakespeare may have
had epilepsy or that the character of Othello did?

Take care,
Tammy
