A long, long time ago…

I started having petite mal seizures at college. Stress, etc. I was finding myself walking around campus then I’d wake up flat on my face. I was diagnosed after about a half dozen doctors tested me over and over for diabetes. One doc said “you’re going to think this is crazy, but I want you to go to the hospital and sleep.”
Has anyone else found most of their peace in the safety of a hospital?

  1. Hi there! Those petite mal seizures are very scary. I know from experience you must listen to your body. If you are tired, rest. We are different, because of epilepsy. We must pay attention to our bodies and get rest.

    A hospital can create safety for sure with all the doctors and resources.
