Hi Tammy,
A few days ago I made a post with something to click on but wrote a sentence before it and put my name under it. That way you know what its about.
"I think (scary) it was a article about a guy with epilepsy playing in the NFL. Take care, keep a smile on your face"!
What I said had absolutely nothing to do with the video. Look at the post to reread what and how I said it (smile).
Tammy,
Above is the paragraph where I used the word "scary". It was after the words "I think". It was totally in fun joking about myself and my ability to think (big giant smile). My cognitive functions are severely impaired in the area of "new learning and memory". It took me 35 years of low self esteem to learn how to accept my weaknesses in those areas. Learning to accept those weaknesses helped me to not feel so sensitive about those weaknesses. And, being able to laugh about my weaknesses in my own ways, helps me to feel good about myself. I say the glass is half full rather than half empty. Why feel down about yourself on something that can't be improved and something that wasn't my choice to have? People in the new world are so competitive, keeping up with the Jone's ect... Hey, we all need to enjoy and laugh about life to enjoy life. So, in short, I was joking about a weakness in me I can't improve and have learned to accept in my own way. Though, that weakness hinders my life each and everyday in my life. And, in recent years has worsened simply because I had a very great surgery which has helped me to live a more lively life which is allowing me to do more in my life. The results of surgery lets me use more of my brain to do that much more which makes it more and more difficult because of the weaknesses in my ability to learn and remember. It doesn't take much for me to get overwhelmed because its hard to zone in one thing from a list of things to do. I hope that explains to you what I meant (smile)? Take care, keep a smile on your face, I am!

Even if you recognize a name or email address, chances are 999 out of 1000 that if there is a link for male enhancement or hot chicks involved, that person's email address has been hacked. They don't know about it and haven't been sending you the emails themselves. Just delete or train your mailbox that these messages are junk mail. Sending them angry emails or deleting them doesn't really solve the problem. It just creates more problems for the person whose address has been hacked.

I didn't read that particular article, but if a person's seizures are well controlled, there is no reason not to engage in almost any activity. Well, I'm not recommending solo flying or channel swimming, but most activities are ok. Why did you find it scary? I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on this.
