Re: [epilepsy] I'm new here.

Hi all. I am new here also. My name is Martha Wilson-Harris. I have been
married for 27+ years to a wonderful man who has been there for me through
all of this. I have two grown children, a son, 27 and a daughter 25 and a am
first time grandmother of a year old granddaughter. I retired April 2008
from the Board of Ed after 21+ years of working as a sub and volunteer in
the library or the elementary schools. More later.
