Re: [epilepsy] Re: CBS 60 Minutes - Sunday, October 25th, 2009

 

I saw most of it earlier tonight but, it brought me to tears as my girlfriend and I talked about what I have done in front of her. Not including all the ones I had b4 my meds helped control them alot better. I used to have 1 or 2 a month if not more and everytime I had to start over trying to remember things, such as where I am, what was I doing and so on. Its very depressing when I heard that there is more of us than people w/ M.S. and they mentioned 2 others as well that are high on the list of disabilities. And they said we amount for all three Combined if not more. So why havn't they found a C.U.R.E yet? It has been know since biblical times about people w/ our problems, So wheres the help? All over seas being spent on Wars that arn't even our buisiness to have to commit to. Men and women are returning a nd having Epilepsy when they return. Whats that? Our goverment should be taking care of it's own citizens first, especially those that have
helped make our contries what they are today. Then help those other Countries in need of True Help. Epilepsy does effect every continent I know but, if we spent the money that these "Fake" Medical Equipment Operations on a Cure they would make alot of progress. 60 billion is alot of taxpayers money going into the hands of some greedy People of all walks of Life....
