Last week I started to feel sorry for myself and the fact that I COULD have epilepsy for the rest of my life. But, today I am feeling "betterish" about it. "Better" is about epilepsy and the "ish" is on account of school starting and summer being over.
My mom spent a lot of time talking to me and listening to me last week. And I spent some time thinking about things.
What I have concluded: I didn't ask for epilepsy but I have it. I can't change it. Worrying about it won't change anything. What I can do is what Dory said (from Finding Nemo): "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming, swimming".
I started Kaitlin's Cauze because I wanted to help OTHERS in the epilepsy community. I wanted to raise money for research and awareness and I wanted to educate people on the disorder. So, I'm going to suck it up, turn my frown upside down, and keep working on my mission.
I might have epilepsy, but I won't let it have ME!
Go with the flow, sweety
