WHY DID YOU START A BLOG IN THE FIRST PLACE?
I am trying to regain some semblance of normalcy after three years of fighting epilepsy, depression, and cancer. Because of epilepsy, there are many things I can’t do. I can’t work, I can’t drive, I can’t process anything mathematical, my cognitive skills are shot, but I have retained my word skills. My psychologist says verbal/word skills are the last things to go with brain trauma, so I’m thankful I’ve retained them, at least for now. I can’t always talk when I am having my seizures, but when I’m having a good day or hour, I can write. I was looking for an artistic outlet, but I had a hard time dealing with typical art-related tools and Bill suggested that I could be creative by writing. I figured I’d look into blogging and never looked back.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE BOOK?
Anything by Tom Robbins.
WHAT DO YOU DISLIKE THE MOST?
Dishonesty
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FOOD AT THE MALL?
At the mall? Hmmm, I don’t eat at the mall, but they have Starbucks so I get iced coffee there.
Thank you so much!!!💚🌸

Have you considered trying that cbd oil? I went to a seminar not long ago and a man there and I had quite the conversation about it and encouraged me to watch a show about it (I’ll try to figure out the name) but pro football players saw marked seizure improvement as did children. I don’t know if it’s legal where you are but may be worth looking into – it’s from pot plants.

I’ve talked to two of my neurologists about the possibility of cannabis-related stuff, but so far they are encouraging me to do the typical med thing. However, the last time I saw my Boston neuro he said we were pretty much at the end of the line for med experiments, so it might be time to revisit this. Thanks much for the reminder! ❤

There was a lot of good information so might well be worth a look.

Yes, I agree. I’ve never had anything to do with pot except trying it a couple of times in college. It did nothing for me, but this might!

I’ll try to find the name of the documentary but it’s not like pot.
