    You know, life can change overnight. But often, what happens overnight is years in the making — meaning, it's never to late to start. I'll be honest — epilepsy is hard. And traveling and performing for a living hasn't made dealing with epilepsy any easier. Let's just say it's been a steady uphill struggle to get my life back. But as Jack Lemon said, "Failure seldom stops you. What stops you is the fear of failure." And the way I see it, I'd rather *do* than stew. I have epilepsy, but it doesn't have me. It's taken me a while, but I'm glad that I've finally shared this with you as I continue my quest to "get my goat on" and to keep it on. -Terri Hendrix

    I was diagnosed with epilepsy at age 18,  I was put on medication and had no problems. Then when my son was being born I had 15 seizures but short ones. that was 15 years ago. until four weeks ago I had 7 Grand mall seizures that lasted over 10 minutes and I lost memory and some people I do not remember at all. I am 42 years old and this has been hard. But I have trusted in God I had no one else..
