Managing a Mix of Epilepsy, Ulcerative Colitis & Asperger's Syndrome

It's been a very long time since I posted anything here. The last time I was here was more than a year ago.

Ian is now 7 years old.

Just last July, he was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. And don't forget that he also has Epilepsy & Ulcerative Colitis.

Would anybody just believe that just by looking at him... No!

So many people have told me that they can't believe that Ian has these disorders/disease. He looks perfectly fine & healthy, they say. How I wish that was true.

But I have learnt & am still learning to take things one day at a time. Learning about my son's disorders & medical problems has changed my perspective on life & has made me question my priorities in life.

Please see my website for my Epilepsy Awareness Comic Book. There are free downloads of the comic. Lets help spread Epilepsy Awareness to children. Please pass this along and possibly make an entry of this. As Epilepsy Awareness month is approaching this would be a great entry for the blog. I have worked with the Epilepsy Foundation of America and othe Epilepsy Foundations in the United States.
