Born premature. Diagnosed with Epilepsy, Type 2 diabetes, Hypertension, and multiple G.I diagnoses as an adult.

Multiple spinal diagnoses from neck to tailbone, diagnoses beginning when I was a teenager.

Recently weaned myself off of topiramate and keppra.

I can feel your pain. I’ve had uncontrollable seizures for over 30 years.

I cry at the drop of a hat. Reason or not. I hate it.

Kameran crying is an emotion that I rarely had before my diagnosis. Yes I do consider it an emotion. It's something I missed my whole life. While considered unusual, especially for a 67 year old man, I regret not being able to earlier in life. I am lucky to have a wife that understands. Crying brings so much relief I don't feel anything else. This is a new challenge for me after 65 years. I am trying to find positive in all things current and future. Being able to show others this and other things are MY normal. Other than the horrible condition I have I am still the same person.
