Ellen's Story
Life
If you remember me, it may be for the seizures I had (esp at Central JH).
I was the first Kansas resident to undergo an experimental trial to help control them. I had a temporal brain lobotomy in Kansas City, Ks. I've donated my brain to the Epilepsy Foundation there in the University for further studys (before and after death). Someday there will be more hope for all neurological syndromes (stroke, alzheimers, cerebral palsy, epilepsy....etc). (consider donating plz) .. I've never had really good health, but I've lived a good life and I'm...Expand for more
happy!!. You might remember that the year I graduated (1977) I was told I had less than 2 years to live...I'm still alive and doing better now than I was then.... I'm the proof that sometimes you have to believe in the future- regaurdless of how long you think you have.
I'm happy with my life. Have 3 great kids--none of them suffer from epilepsy or any seizure disorders. I have grandkids who are also healthy!!
I dont drive. I am considered permanetly disabled. I suffer from memory problems so help me remember!!
~~smiles to you all~~
