Today I have an appointment with my neurologist, and I’ve been thinking all day how happy he’s gonna be when I tell him that next week I’ll be 12 months seizure free. Of course, by all day I mean since I woke up less than an hour ago.

I know that after he asks how I’ve been, he’s going to ask about seizures, that’s his job. I’m just wondering how to break the great news to him. I’m so excited for this appointment just to tell him that because I know that’s what every doctor wants to hear, that his patients are doing better. It means he’s doing his job and it’s working.

I can’t wait to tell him, and I’ll be back with news about what he tells me later today.

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.
