I know that people are human beings struggling with who they are in the life they live. I recall my experience as a teenager living with epilepsy at a time when epilepsy was hardly known. Despite my unique experience, it was not different from other people's experiences. Perspective helps me to recognize how human I am, despite my differences.

Reflecting on knowledge that wasn’t available thirty years ago and coming to terms with my truth. What happened can’t be changed and I am grateful that it never broke me. I can embrace the truth and discover where it takes me.
