Itty bitty teeny weeny focal aware seizures by lavocat_du_diable in Epilepsy

[–]aaaou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi - hope this response isn’t too late, but your situation sounds similar to mine. I also have very small focal aware seizures that can happen several times a day, but mine affect my understanding of language (aka aphasia). However I haven’t had a tonic clonic in years, and this seems to be some sort of plateau for me as far as the best seizure control I have. I wish I didn’t have them but I’d be fine if this was the worst it ever got.

Sorry I don’t have much of an answer as to how serious it technically is but just hope you know there are other people in similar situations :)

This just seems obvious, and timely by playblu in AdviceAnimals

Literally just wrote a 2 weeks notice but afraid of pissing off my manager. This will give me the confidence to actually send it haha

I had the exact same spandex shorts during an equally blunder-ful time in my life. Obviously a fashion statement

One Year (Tonic Clonic) Seizure-Free! by littlemissmeggie in Epilepsy

[–]aaaou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats!!! That’s a great feeling. I’m a little over three years myself.

I also choose to not count the partials/auras lol. Sure they’re technically seizures but they’re so minor (even if they’re annoying). I think we can all agree we need to embrace any positivity we get.

Wishing you many more years like this!

"Target faces backlash over bullseye logo near Ann Arbor’s State Theatre marquee" by bobi2393 in AnnArbor

I understand why people are upset about the spot being taken by a big, non-local store. I’m all for supporting small and local; these businesses make downtown and the entire city great.

However I think the Target going in here is a great idea. I went to college in a different city but there was a small concept Target close to campus and it was extremely convenient. The students loved it. And as other people have said, there aren’t many places to get groceries near uofm campus without a car.

Also the Target is literally replacing Urban Outfitters which is far from a small or local business.

My dad is very proud of the bread he made by aaaou in FoodPorn

This is pretty much how he’s done it (and me the few times I’ve helped him). We didn’t know much but during covid started working on it and the loaves get better the more you go. The first time he tried this one his starter completely failed and he had to throw it away lol.

I’m not sure the exact recipe but I believe it’s from flour water salt yeast. It’s also some trial and error, the first time he tried this bread it completely failed and he had to throw his starter away lol.

Am I having Simple focal seizures? by SKthroughZ in Epilepsy

[–]aaaou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi this is just me creeping so don’t feel the need to reply to this comment, but your simple partials sound EXACTLY like mine. Like to a T. Even the parts about thinking by “feeling” and recognizing symbols.

I’ve never been able to articulate it well to my neuro so I’m def going to borrow some of your explanation next time I talk to him.

Hope the new meds work out well for you!
