Epilepsy Awareness Month: Day 8!

It's the eighth day of Epilepsy Awareness Month!

I have only had one or two absences today, which compared to previous days isn't as bad so at least I can look on the bright side.  As always, I try my best to look on the bright side of having epilepsy, no matter how hard it may be!

I was on my laptop earlier and I was doing a puzzle and the concentration towards the puzzle resulted in me having an absence.  Dad noticed and came over to squeeze my hand and although he was asking if I could hear him, for some reason I just couldn't respond to him.  Then I think he started recording me having my absence!  It went on for ages and because it wasn't a lighter absence, I couldn't stop myself from going into it.  When I eventually responded to what he was saying to me, I could only really respond really quietly!

Unfortunately, I was also watching a video online and I missed a massive chunk of it, so I had to rewind it so I could have a recap of what was being said!  But, on the other hand, at least I haven't had any falls today!

I will attach a picture that is connected to the type of seizure that I had today!


The moments of going blank are what I had today!
