Dear Laurie,

I've just posted a video link on Our Page. I realize it's not creative writing but to me it does express as much a poem can or even more. When it isn't appropriate to post a video like this one, let me know and I'll remove it.

Yours,

Soma, mom to Joni

Hi Laurie

Hope you are ok mate and feeling better? I've put my "Ballad Of The Big Girls Blouse" poem on the creative writing page, and a serious one that I wrote for an old friend that lost her father, just to prove I can write seriously sometimes.

All ok with me I think, although I found myself to be wearing soaking wet trousers this morning, and I have no idea how or why!!!! All I know is that they were fine when I put them on after my shower!

Hope all is good with you?

Cheers

Hi Maureen. I've always loved that saying and decided this was espically "the" quote to put out here. Some people look as us with a wicked kind of wonder, often making us feel inferior. Glad you like it! Laurie

PS We should keep in touch more often!

About Me

About Cinnabar

Seizure Background

Nearly two years ago, I had my first T/C Seizure and several since, sustaining injuries.
After examining my MRI with my neurologist and answering a list of questions, he gave me
the diagnosis of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. I asked him why know in mid life? He explained
that I could have been having forms of TLE seizures all my life. TLE is connected with
experiencing the paranormal. I've had let's say "other worldly" experiences throughout
my life. I've been diagnosed with Bi-Polar and treated for it successfully for nearly eight
years. Fortunately, Lamicatal does "double duty" aiding Epilepsy and TLE. Five years ago
I was diagnosed with DID. As with Epilepsy I'd like to advocate and bring it out of the
closet as well. It's been studied and researched that TLE, Bi-Polar and DID are all
interconnected. Theories but no conclusive evidence. So, I live with many questions.
Though, my first priority is learning more about Epilepsy in general and how to manage
my life around it.
