Ep. 101 - Epilepsy

All Around Growth

Epilepsy is a group of neurological disorders characterized by recurrent epileptic seizures.[10][11] Epileptic seizures are episodes that can vary from brief and nearly undetectable periods to long periods of vigorous shaking.[1] These episodes can result in physical injuries, including occasionally broken bones.[1] In epilepsy, seizures have a tendency to recur and, as a rule, have no immediate underlying cause.[10] - Wikipedia

What is a seizure?

A seizure, formally known as an epileptic seizure, is a period of symptoms due to abnormally excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain.[5] Outward effects vary from uncontrolled shaking movements involving much of the body with loss of consciousness (tonic-clonic seizure), to shaking movements involving only part of the body with variable levels of consciousness (focal seizure), to a subtle momentary loss of awareness (absence seizure).[3] Most of the time these episodes last less than 2 minutes and it takes some time to return to normal.[4][7]

Promise me you'll always remember: You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
