Great news for all pediatric epilepsy may be just a phase in childs life that's outgrown. Yet depite it you still had a full life too.Any who treat you weird just has stupd ideas that can't be changed. I'd just dismiss an idiot like that.

I'm 🤷‍♀️ still learning about my health condition with being diagnosed with grandma 👵 seizures, from being kicked in the head with steel toe boots 👢 bye son's father 👨 after he beat up on me 🤷‍♀️ which was extremely 😔 for no reason, I had 2 seizures as of September 2 2024 and found myself 🤷‍♀️ in the hospital 🏥 again, I'm so tired 😴 of always passing out falling hitting the ground unconscious and waking up in the hospital 🏥 I take my medicine pill 💊 daily like the doctor says, so I don't know why I'm always having issues but seizures is what I suffer from grandma 👵 seizures at that 🤷‍♀️
