Hello


Just wanted to say a quick hello to everyone. I'm new to this and was referred here by my friend Rae1889. I've had epilepsy since that age of 7 and never really thought to reachout to other people until now. I think this is a fantastic idea and I'm looking forward to chatting with all of you.

Hi love! glad your here now.
You'll love it here. I found a great place to vent (use the padded room when you want to scream about things) and the lemonade stand (when you need cheering up about having E) and then just chit chat and ask questions when you need it.

I'm here for you darling. If you need help navigating, we can just hit coffee at your place or mine and I'll show you around my second "home"

Love and hugs, always and forever
Rae

Hello Rayban!!


I'm glad you directed me to this place and that you are here also. It makes having E alot easier doesn't it? Thanks for being there in every way. Definetly thinking that we need to do coffee on the asap. I can't wait to learn how to navigate around this place.

xoxoxo

I think since last summer, or, at the latest September. We suspect my partner has E -- some classic simple and complex partial signs -- and he's waiting on an EEG right now, before the neurologist is willing to say one way or the other. So I'm a support person at home and here.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask -- here or by PM.

Welcome to CWE! As Rae has no doubt warned you, we're a friendly, occasionally rowdy bunch. But generally good company as long as you don't let us linger at the punchbowl...

Welcome Angel, It sounds like I need to be rowdier I don't seem to have a reputation here. They're amazingly good people and can actually make you laugh about epilepsy. Which my family had already been doing. I'm English and have the sick slightly twisted sense of humor. So I kinda fit in here. Glad you came.

Lol I told her about you too Flin! And a buttload of people on here... And then I basically said that she'd fall in love with everyone. And there are a lot of regulars
