About me? I’m never good at these things, but here are the basics. I’m a journalism and film graduate from the University of Texas at Austin. I'm a dedicated digital content nerd with over eight years of experience in digital content management, content writing, copy editing, and project management. Currently, I'm a staff writer for The American Genius, and I manage my personal blog that advocates for epilepsy awareness. I LOVE to bake! I like to challenge myself to learn new decorating and baking techniques. And although I’d love to say I’ve mastered everything and have never burnt a dessert, it simply isn’t true. View more posts
Hi Vero,
I completely get what you’re saying here. These are the things we know and are so important to tell. That warrior spirit epilepsy carved out of us. The survivor, the fighter, and the person we are, apart from it and thus shaped by it nonetheless. I believe if the world saw what we had to go through on the daily-doctors, neurologists, meds, preventing seizures, Mris, EEGs, sleep deprived EEGs, blood tests, you name it we’ve done it, the stigma would lessen dramatically.
Very interesting,
E.A.B.
