Welcome



Hi Joey. Come on in and have a seat. This is a great site to relax, learn a little bit more about epilepsy, and share our experiences that those without epilepsy just don't seem to understand.

I hope you enjoy your stay.

Talking Hi Joey,

nice to meet you!

You've found a great place to be. new friends who really understand, and support you, as well as a place to vent when you need it. Mr B (Bernard) has made a wonderful home for us here.......

How long have you been "blessed" with E? I've been blessed with it for, well, all my life except the 1st year. Like you I have the tonic clonics (t/c's) which is the new term for grand mals. Are yours under control, or not? You'll find lots of ideas in terms of alternative therapies here......diets, neurofeedback and more. Take the time to explore, you'll learn a lot!

Toodles!

Hey Joey -
My daughter is 16 and has Tonic Clonic seizures as well. We have learned ways to control them however, without medication.

Welcome to CWE. Looking forward to hearing more of your story when you feel comfortable.

Hi Joey! Welcome to CWE. We're a pretty friendly group. Feel free to ask questions, chime in, or just vent if needed. Like you, I'm no stranger to grand mals.

We have that effect on most people.... we will wear you down until you pull up a chair, take your shoes off, and hunker down for a good chat.

What do you do down there in Corpus Christi Texas? My sister is near Dallas. Good people down there in Texas.

Take care of yourself down there on the coast. Sounds like it is a little rough today.
