#Epilepsy Report

Today on my drive home from work I suffered a Grand Mal seizure while driving. I crashed into a telephone pole and totaled my car to the point where firefighters had to cut the vehicle door off to get me out.

I’m grateful that no one else was harmed and I feel terrible that I potentially put anyone else in danger. Please forgive for this. I am truly sorry.

I was taken to a hospital 🏥 and checked out. I have many bruises and am sore as all hell. My head hurts from the seizure. However, I am safe and thank God for this as well.

I will not be driving for awhile. I have to go six months again without a seizure in order to get my license back, but even that I worry about.

So sorry to read this. Realizing that having epilepsy keeps you from enjoying the “normal” (some might say essential) life conveniences we all take for granted … like driving. Ho do you manage transportation now?

So glad you’re ok.

Back to asking for rides and riding my bicycle.

Was “walkability” something you considered (have to consider) when applying for jobs or finding housing? Wow.
