Because I have been diagnosed with Epilepsy, I now follow the Epilepsy Foundation on Facebook and I bookmarked the website on my computer. I have found it really helpful because reading their articles helps me understand and know more about my seizures and what causes them.
I just read an article titled Stress, Anxiety, Depression. This caught my attention because I have been told that these can be triggers for seizures. I wanted to know if there was something else I had to do, besides taking my medicines. As I read it, I saw that I have been managing my feelings and emotions well, getting enough sleep and writing down my emotions.
I know this last one helps a lot. I read that writing down your feelings helps and I really believe this. I write almost everyday, even if I erase it after I write it or don’t put it on my blog, I write. It’s something that just helps me feel better, as I wrote on my post Why I write.
But now I’m really sure that I’m doing things right and I can say I’m doing everything I can to control my epilepsy.
Here is the link to this article and other helpful and interesting articles about epilepsy.

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
