November...30 Days Of Thankfulness, Day Eight

#30daysofThankfulness day eight: My Brother, I am SO Thankful for Peter and the awesome friendship we have. He has always been there for me without hesitation. I have been through some pretty rough stuff, and no matter what Peter has always been there to hold me when I cry, to listen when I need to talk, to give advice when I don't know what to do and to give the simplest hug. I love him so much, not just because he is my brother but also because he is one of my best friends in life! I can't even put it into words how unbelievably thankful I am for him. Peter has been with me through this whole epilepsy ordeal, he was(and still is) always right there holding my hand through it all and for that I will be eternally grateful and thankful. I love you Petey and thank you for always being there!

I cried when I saw this just now.

Silent Pain.

I just recently read a blog post about silent pain. It was like it was talking about me. Though the girl that wrote it and I deal with pain about completely different things and hers is much more serious, we still deal with pain and we hold it in. Unfortunately, she didn't say anything until it was to late. Until it had already broken her. I don't want to do that. I don't want this pain to break me. I don't want to lose a part of myself because of this pain. So, I am going tell you about my pain. Not to make you feel bad for me, not so that you can pity me, but because... I want to inspire others. I want to inspire you. I want to share my journey with you, I want you to be a part of my journey. And I don't want this pain to break me. I walk down the aisle in Wal-mart, in the hallway at the hospital where my dad works, at church, in the car, at home, anywhere and it seems like everywhere I go there are flickering lights (flickering lights are a major seizure trig

My Hallelujah Song.

Today is one of those really bad days. You know, the kind of day where your heart hurts even when something wonderful happens? The kind of day that makes you want to cry about every little thing? The kind of day that makes you almost hate the things you love? Yeah, today has been that kind of day for me. Today has kind of stunk! It has been rough and my heart is hurting. Today is the every once in a while day that we call "I hate Epilepsy day". It comes every couple of weeks or months and it doesn't stay long but while it's here, it hurts! It breaks our hearts and it makes us cry and basically, it just plain stinks, big time!! I have cried more times then I can count today. Why? You may ask. Because, it stinks to have Epilepsy sometimes! Now, please don't get the idea that I hate Epilepsy, even though everything I've said so far has pointed to that very thought. I LOVE having Epilepsy!! I love that the Lord gave this illness to me!! It is a gift and I am
