Epilepsy & Seizures Support Group
Epilepsy (often referred to as a seizure disorder) is a chronic neurological condition characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures.

So it snowed yesterday....most people are excited and happy, but I am however not like them....Bad weather causes more seizures....it is when I get to thinking why do I live in Kansas? Why don't I move to California or Florida...where the weather is mostly sunny and good. I don't know...I just hope this winter goes smoothly and I don't have any major falls or seizures because of the snow or ice....I just have to keep my spirit up and know that I can survive and get through it!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
