You...I thank you, my friend, for the lovely words. Your support is greatly appreciated.<BR/>For you to actually have experienced Epilepsy as a young man makes you even more personally aware of how important this cause is; to get out the word of Epilepsy and seizure awareness.<BR/><BR/>I am so relieved that you are no longer suffering from the seizures and by reading your story, gives me hope that I too, one day, will become seizure free. It is my goal.<BR/><BR/>With friends like you giving me the strength through these posts, and through your prayers, I know I can do it!<BR/>Thank you so much and please know how much I am appreciated of this.<BR/>Many hugs to you and your family!♥Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02324458825591614167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182684097211815472.post-66443627752786660882009-03-26T16:29:00.000-05:002009-03-26T16:29:00.000-05:00Lovely!

It looks like a lot of us supported Purple Day and Michele, and the many more people who struggle every day with epilepsy. Oh yes,... I have a daughter Judith, too!

On another subject, I noticed your post below with J for Judith.

I think too that it must be more difficult to deal with people who don't understand than to deal with the actual seizure.<BR/>Back when I was young, I used to work with youth that had physical and mental difficulties and seizures was a common ailment.<BR/><BR/>And thank you for you stories about Skye. I love her name. The spelling is beautiful. It is fun to listen to you think back to when she was a pup and had her ears up and down. Kekoa isstarting to hold one up about half way and it cracks me up. My mom has a cairn/poodle mix and she loves her to pieces.<BR/>Blessings to you today.Jules~https://www.blogger.com/profile/13732679095832415575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182684097211815472.post-63788753834049854942009-03-26T08:51:00.000-05:002009-03-26T08:51:00.000-05:00I had a neighbor who had epilepsy when I was a kid...I had a neighbor who had epilepsy when I was a kid...very scary for a 10 year old to see a seizure.Scrappy Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11802418508966206933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182684097211815472.post-29520234563741917532009-03-26T04:09:00.000-05:002009-03-26T04:09:00.000-05:00I haven't been back to you for quite a while, and ...I haven't been back to you for quite a while, and am always sorry that I've missed so much. Indeed, epilepsy is something we should all be aware of. I remember once in a bus here there was a young man who had some sort of very brief seizure, then returned to himself and seemed not to have been aware of what had happened.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00241553607254199559noreply@blogger.com
