Anorexia Nervosa is well behind me now, and I have been seizure free for eight years---a very fortunate guy.
Oh that's really cool and i was reading about your life just now on the website and i'm sorry that you epilepsy and i didn't know you had a eating disorder

I agree. It is like buying a new car...suddenly the roads are brimming over with the same model.We are starting to slow down down under, the summer holidays will soon be upon us. Time to relax and enjoy life...bring it on. :-)

Funny thing has happened since I read your book... I find myself hearing more people talking about epilepsy. I always make sure to mention your book. Thanks for stopping by my page. With school being back in full swing- things have gotten very busy around the Kulman home. I hope everything is going well with my favorite Aussie Author!
Life got in the way, so I haven't finished your book yet. I do find myself thinking about situations, and events that I've read about thus far, and can't wait to return to reading your incredible story once again.Your Friend, Kathy
