As promised last month, here is my poster for 11 months seizure free. As I say every month, I can't believe I've made it this long seizure free. Reaching a year will make me feel more accomplished than anything else I've done this past year. Just 1 more month!!!!!

I've been really good about taking my medicine on time, sometimes I'm a little too strict about that. If it's 8 pm, it's 8 pm, not a minute sooner, and I never forget. I complain when my mom keeps checking up on me, asking if I took my medicines, because she knows I'm even more … Continue reading That time I missed a dose
That's right, I made it 6 months without having a seizure. I have been scared I may have one, tonight I got a little dizzy after dinner and I got scared, but it wasn't a seizure; I just got dizzy.
