Midlands expo and update

[silverbrumby123]

So Midlands expo was actually pretty cool! Even though we didn't win anything in the masquerade we got loads of compliments and stuff, and yeah. I didn't buy anything except for poptarts and a can of mountain dew, because we literally had no time to go around and look at stuff, what with preparing for the masquerade and repairing last minute

Epilepsy is something ridiculous like twice as likely to occur in people with Autism. Do you know what she's sensitive to? I'm sensitive to light, so I ended up with photosensitive epilepsy. Try covering up one eye (just one, I know it sounds odd, but it works better).

Also remember that seizures take a lot of time to recover from. I slept for 24hrs after mine. So although it seems bad now, when she has a diagnosis and they're helping her, she'll be a lot better. And there are drugs that help, but it takes a bit of experimentation to find the right ones because everyone's different.

Should your mum's work not let her off for a couple of hours to take her? And if not possibly sick leave? IDK. Otherwise you might be able to legally take her since you're over 18, but you might not be able to answer all the questions they'll need to answer.

Whatever happens, remember it'll get better. *hugs* Just hang on there and do your best.

thing is, she has been to an epilepsy nurse, and either another epilespy specialist or a neurologist, and had different types of fits during both sessions, and they are nothing like the specialists have seen before, so we don't even know if its epilepsy anymore, hence the weird probe brain thing shes having this weekend. It seems to happen when shes stressed, but thereare times when she appears to be completely relaxed and they happen
