Makes you wonder doesn't it why some people have seizures and others don't. I know if I personally don't get
sick and keep my immune system up, or watch I don't get stressed out/over excited, and watch all the things
that may trigger a seizure for me I am ok. Another thing is getting past the thought of looking over my
shoulder and afraid of a seizure happening, be happy etc. I am ok. I use to think oh oh, Glen will be gone
for the day what happens if I have a seizure and nobody is here, that grows and grows in the back of your mind
and sure enough that is when I will have one. Acceptance is the key to mine. I have it, don't know when it
may come, but at the same time am not going to watch for it coming. Also working or doing whatever I have to
do at an even pace. Don't hurry me, let me be me. Slow and easy gets it done.
