Marshall,
         I agree with you as I have epilepsy & when I tell people that
I have epilepsy they mostly say things like "Well, you don't look like
you have it" or some other rude (that's what I consider it) remark.
Also, I showed someone at my church the medication I was taking &
they looked at me & said "Ooh, I don't think I could take that much
medicine" and I felt like saying "Oh yeah, if your life depended on it
I think you could if you didn't want to fall down from having a seizure"
so those are some of what I can say since I have epilepsy & I have more
but it's early in the morning & I'm still tired I'll give you more
later. Take care.
Regards,
         Robert
