Epilepsy: The Lightning Storm Within the Brain: My Personal Reflections in Time's Rear-view Mirror

by D.S. Miller

The Lightning Storm Within the Brain became a member of the 200 bestsellers club in November of 2016, #173 in the self help category. Epilepsy is a lightning storm within the brain, excess static electricity...shocking isn't it! We are all cars and E--as they are known to the diagnosed--people just have faulty electrical systems. Mr. Miller understands that epilepsy is a heavy concept to get your head around so he developed a car concept that everyone, from law enforcement to clergy, medical professionals, EMTs, therapists and psychiatrists, to every day lay-people like Sally Average Person and Joe Average Person can learn about epilepsy in a non-threatening way that enlightens a subject that still bears a stigma even after centuries of education to the contrary, learn how Mr. Miller overcame an alcohol addiction, being shunned at school because he couldn't drive, how he nearly died in 3 alcohol-induced binge blackouts, learn about anti-epilepsy-drugs and the horrendous potential birth defects they might cause, a reason that Mr. Miller has taken a vow of celibacy, a 53 and 1/2 year old virgin. Mr. Miller delivers a frank and unapologetic expose and insight into the life of an E person. With his novel automotive concept he bring epilepsy home in a manner anyone, from toddler to octogenarian and beyond can understand. He brings E to you with style; wit; humor; and a touch of NASCAR thrown in...climb aboard the Electric Highway and get ready for one hell of a ride. To the E person static electricity is not only in excess within the brain but also all around them, a lightning storm within the brain, a cloudy fuddled drug-induced thunderstorm of the mind. Shocking, isn't it!
