Hey Gigi, My dogs have actually learned to clank their bowls for water and or food...then they walk over and stare at me and repeat the process...now that's training!:roflmao:
 
Dark ages........please. You know you have epilepsy if you are signing papers and you forget what year it is. Help me!
 
You hear an ambulance and your heart races and you think "oh god not again" but then you remember you are simply walking into the restaurant, it's not you this time :roflmao:

my dog is a con artist, and i think she knows my memory/attention span is shot. she likes to pretend i have not fed her as she hangs out by the bowl AGAIN. my husband will also feed her, then tell me so, i forget and feed her again. it's no wonder she is sporting a gut!:bigsmile:
 
I love when you have to explain you drooled all over yourself like an idiot and that's why your shirt is wet. yep, i'm a giant 1 year old :roflmao:
 
When I got on a bus this morning and went to ask for the bus stop which I get off at every other day,then I found I couldn't remember what it was called still the driver did.
 
You and your cousin are goofing around at the dinner table and your cousin ever so jokingly bops you on the head with a cup and your mom jumps across the table and screams "STOP THAT! YOU KNOW VICTORIA HAS PROBLEMS WITH HER HEAD AND SHE CAN'T GET ANY MORE MESSED UP!" :paperbag: thanks mom. could have worded that better at least.

I had a gerbil that banged her metal bowl repeadedly against the side of her gerbilarium on the metal bars whilst keep looking at me after she had finished the dried mealworms I'd put in it once (I'd put them in the bowl because she loved them so much she would rush to get them and often get my finger instead in her rush!). She didn't stop until I gave in to her demands, I should have took the bowl out really but was just shocked that she was having a temper tantrum. I never gave her a metal bowl after that. :roflmao:

that was funny, I mean the reaction your Mom had and just blurted it out!!!
======================================

You know you have epilepsy if your husband talks to you as though you are hard of hearing, as though talking louder will make my memory better!:bigsmile:
 
I was sitting on our covered porch this weekend to watch the sun rise, listen to the NEWS and enjoy my cup off coffee. Next thing I know my husband is holding my cup and asking if I am ok. It seems I pour half of it into my lap, singed my upper thighs.
 
gerbilarium hahaha that word makes me happy.


so you know you have epilepsy, when you are 28 and the emts threaten to call your mom before they threaten to take you to hospital
 
You know you have epilepsy when.... you wake up with a strange man in your face and you think "oh crap! not again!" or "ugh! they sent YOU again..."
 
You know you have epilepsy when you see a person have a seizure and you tell the medic to move and you take care of every thing.lol I was a hero today
 
You know you have epilepsy when....You are talking to your head of year at school about bullying but forget what she said, to which she responds 'if your not going to listen im not going to waste my time'. She always was a stroppy *insert expletive*

You know you have Epilepsy when....you come around from a fit and your co-worker shoves you back down as you slowly move to sit up and says dont move.

You know you have Epilepsy when.... you come around from a fit to find a man handing you an oxygen mask, use it, give it back to him as though he wants some and repeat this process two or three times.

You know you have Epilepsy when....you feel bad because you work on an island and so the paramedic has had to carry a million bags onto a small boat, only to get there, make sure I hadnt died by taking a blood sample and my tempreture and then had to carry those million bags back onto the main land.

yay you!! That must be a good feeling to help a fellow E. person. Lucky for them you were near by!:bigsmile:
 
You know you have epilepsy when you have a seizure in a hospital and the first thing you say to the handsome doctor is 'thank god my pants are up'...happened 3 days ago.:roflmao:
 
When your first thought waking up in the hospital is a call back to childhood lessons: "Oh crap, was I wearing clean underwear?!" :oops:

When you aren't allowed to cook, shower, take a bath or nap while home alone.

If you can't eat salad without cracking a "Ceaser/Seizure" joke. ;)
