Seriously?

This disgusts me, all this stuff about breast cancer.  I know it's a horrible thing.  But what about all the other things that are just as lethal or MORE lethal than it?

If you've read this for awhile, or have read certain posts, you'll know that last year my little sister died.  She died of epilepsy.  She had epilepsy for years, and so have I.  I'm so angry that so little attention is paid to this dangerous, and sometimes deadly, disorder.  I'll be honest with you, I've nearly died because of seizures before.  Face plants onto tile floors, falling backwards through a glass door, down the stairs, every where you can think of.

There is a method that can help breast cancer, even make it go away.  Yeah it's harsh but there is no such thing for epilepsy.  People have to live with epilepsy often for their entire lives.  And if you ever saw a child collapse and convulse, you'd understand why it's so awful.

Please, if you can, donate.  They aren't asking me to do this and I'm not getting anything in return for saying all this.  I'm doing it for my sister.  I don't want anyone else to die like that.
