Thanks for a nice smile! I think we all have some story of sorts that are just off the wall that only another epileptic... or famillly member of an epileptic could reelate to.

I sometimes get very aggressive and confused and wonder off if I get the chance. I did this and was found quite a ways from twon this time and taken to the hospital. Wearing my medical id neckless. During lucid moments I explained the proble,m but I had a seizure where I could not respond but could hear and see all around me wwwhen the nurse came asking questions. She got rude and threatened me with a cathiter (sp?), blood work and a drug test because she thought I was eing difficult i guess. Still nno reason to act that way to patient. I later asked for administration. Didnt get to see anyone. NO ONE. My daughter showed up and saw me curled up crying. I got anghry and got up and left with iv needle -no iv attatched in my arm. I was half way across lot when 4 nurses got to me. My
daughter had me stopped and calm when one pushed me down on her to pull it out. She is 5 months pregnant. I will never go there for help again. I live in a small town with one hosptial. This is how we are treated here. Probably better than usual though. Ive been arrested twice before when i have wondered off and family didnt find me first.
