Produktbeschreibung

A strange and unexpected happening during the party of my eleventh birthday led to a doctors appointment the following day, which in turn was unraveled and led to further happenings throughout my life. Before that time in my life, everything was quiet, and I had self-confidence in myself and ambitions for my future. My life with family and friends was a simple pleasure. Although in recent years there has been a rise in the publics understanding and toleration of the epileptic, I still believe from the non-epileptics perspective much more can be done to try and understand just how devastating a brain condition epilepsy is and how injurious it is for the epileptic sufferers and their complete way of life.

Autorenporträt

I was born in Middlesbrough in February 1963 and had many ambitions when I was young, mainly to be extremely well-educated and on leaving school going on to college and university before as I did intend when young moving to London to begin a new career with a well-paid job and beginning a completely new life. When I was diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of eleven, I was completely thrown by this news, which horrified me and completely turned my life upside down. My consultant overdosed me with anti-epileptic medication, and until the age of twenty-seven, when I went to London for a better treatment, my life was empty because of the severely ill way I was. However, I was supported by a small number of people who supported me through many difficult years in my life. Eventually, however, after being treated for my condition in the South London Hospital, despite still suffering with uncontrolled epilepsy, I have been feeling clear-headed, and in 1990, I went to Deeds University, where I studied for five years for a Bachelor of Arts degree in which I was successful, and then in 1996, I studied for one year for a Master of Arts degree at the Purple Shield University. After passing this successfully, I had a period of several years I took quietly, still suffering epileptic seizures. However, after a three-week stay in New York in 2007, I have had two books published so far, and now that I am seriously involved in politics, I am intending to stand in the May 2015 General Election for the Stockton North constituency and beginning a new career as the MP, both representing the people of the Stockton North constituency and people national and international who suffer from epilepsy, which is a brain condition which though it is devastating still many people do not know a great deal about it and exactly how devastating it is.
