Walk to End Epilepsy

Today was the walk and to me it was surreal. At the opening ceremony, I started to cry I met so great people and I was able to relate. I come from a community that supports me but doesn't truly understand what I go through.

Having support from people who are going through the same thing and being complete strangers makes me feel that I am not alone. I know I'm not completely alone but meeting people who are experiencing what I am a getting their support just makes it feel so much more to the point I can't explain.

My message is to help people feel comfortable with their epilepsy and with themselves in general. I want people to love their body love who they are. Even help them find who they are positivity happiness and more.

I hope to c ok me back in the future or find a city near my middle of nowhere town to go to.

I would love to hear your stories epileptic or not I want to hear how you go through the bad and made it to the good.

Sharing our stories is a great way to start getting comfortable with epilepsy and yourself. Spreading awareness and message. The more we talk and tell our stories.

This walk is a good way to get the conversation started if you don't feel comfortable talking joining an event of some sorts related to epilepsy, A.D.D. or any other sorts of a disorder.

Fun Fact: I use to HATE the word disorder

This walk isn't just a walk as well it is a way to get people to get together and relate with each other.

A New Decade or Chapter

It's that time a year again but, I have to do something new this year I'm considered self-employed thanks to my book . I never thought I would be able to say I'm self-employed even though I haven't broken even yet. I'm so grateful for 2019 and am ready to embrace 2020! It let in a new chapter of my life and I'm even working on my second book that will be done here soon. I'm not sure to this day if I took my first book in the right direction. The thing is you live and you learn though I hope to make a difference with my books or book as of this moment I only have one. I do hope on releasing my second book this year titled Myself. I'm doing something that I never thought I would do but I'm revealing my true self I talked some about what I've been through in You. I'm taking off my brave face and am going to reveal my feelings it's hard but I'm doing it. The thing is how am I going to help someone if I'm still hiding You . It ...

Mom Life

If you're a mom you might just ask yourself this question almost daily "Am I a bad mom" I know I do and I normally talk to my best friend or my boyfriend about it and why I feel that way. I always get told the same thing by both of them "NO you are not a bad mom you are doing what you can" That is one this every mom needs to remember you're no a bad mom if it's your first child no matter how old they are you're still learning. Every day is a new lesson. You're never truly are on your own when it comes to parenting even if it feels like it at times. As being a human you're constantly learning even if you don't realize it. Just because it's not a big lesson sometimes the smaller ones can be more of an impact than the big ones. My toddler constantly tests my patience he tries to push me to my breaking point. I get mad but I have to take a deep breath. I know he doesn't understand but sometimes I think he knows exactly what he...

Listen to Your Body

I always talk about how important health is mind and body, but it doesn't prepare you for unexpected health issues. Unfortunately, that's what's going on with me. I don't know exactly what's going on I do know I've gotten into the doctor as soon as possible. That's something someone should do if somethings not right monitor it and if it doesn't stop after a few days go to the doctor. I'm no medical professional this is just my opinion. I ended up finding out what was going on. I'm still going through all the treatment it was nothing deadly nothing dangerous. I'm glad everything has been figured out. Remember if something is abnormal with your body check it out your health is important. This is partially the reason I've been gone in the month of November. I found out that I abnormal bleeding in my womanhood. I accidentally overlap with two different types of birth control the depo shot and the arm implant. So that life lesson has been...
