    One Day I Will Be Seizure Free!

    How can stress cause activity unless a person is susceptible to seizures? I do think when my husband is stressed around his seizure times (every 3-4 weeks), they are

    One Day I Will Be Seizure Free!

    Interesting. If you would like, send me the name of the facility and I can do some digging. I'm hoping someone shows up this way. My guess is still mid to upper twenties, as that's pretty standard in...
