Originally, I planned to release a blog about Jersey coming together, which we haven’t been doing due to self-esteem, “I made this first,” and accusations that had nothing to do with the purpose of Jersey Club. We let others think different of us, FOR A SECOND! Now, we back! I love the way Jersey has... Continue Reading →
It sounds very strange that I, the peer advocate for almost everything did not post about epilepsy on November 1st, but I showed it off to the world. I was proud to wear my purple, I was proud to remind epileptic people that it was national epilepsy awareness month. You know why? Because those 27... Continue Reading →
I’ve found a home to walk in the path of God in, finally! A place that makes me feel comfortable. The lord said “Come as you are.” I came in so confused back in July. I came in confusion on many things. It wasn’t that I wasn’t sure of what I was doing, it was... Continue Reading →
As humans, we have the toughest pride. We hate to hear the “truth”. This is what we may not necessarily agree with, but because it’s said, you start to believe it yourself. If you’re one who can take great constructive criticism, it goes well. If not, you’ll end up saying and doing things you’ll regret.... Continue Reading →
Hi Class, For my lesson today, I will be teaching you something maybe no one has thought of doing. Everyone may have came up with posting things to websites, recipes, and crafts. As an epileptic patient who went from nothing, to a lot, I will be teaching you the steps to believing in yourself. Step... Continue Reading →
I’m back, with a bit of inspiration for you. Having epilepsy isn’t easy, I’ve just adjusted to the fact that wow this is really my life. It’s amazing to see how other people handle it, and encouraging to know that by me making one move, I am being a great influence to someone else. I’ve... Continue Reading →
It began with or without you. You will not disrupt my peace. You will not rise my blood pressure or cause an anxiety attack leading into a seizure. This time it’s all about me, me, and ME. I made it my business to continuously make others happy forgetting who I was, and how to be... Continue Reading →
Here’s to being thankful! Thankful for another year, another breath of fresh air, another moment of peace even when there sometimes seems to be no way to find it.

I’ve been battling Epilepsy since age 19. At first I caught myself waking up in the middle of the night with a shirt drenched in sweat, next I caught myself hearing thousands of “Jessica” that I just couldn’t answer too. At that moment it was like anything triggered it, I cried, I seized, I stressed,... Continue Reading →
Isn’t it crazy, crazy how life works. It literally does a 360, and if you’ve done right by life; and forgiven yourself with true intentions to be pure, all is well. I sit and I think, certain times I used to cry, hysterically, about things that I had no control over. I wanted life to... Continue Reading →
Crazy how racism isn’t the only issues between cops and the people. Neurological patients have come to have many issues with many misunderstanding situations or people.

We as humans demand attention in certain aspects, and then turn around and give people a reason to be in denial on our decisions. For example, a major example in my eyes. Black lives matter is a major thing, racism is a major thing. Why do we take the terms and things said to us... Continue Reading →
I be feeling like ya'll don't really understand nothing. Not knowing when a seizure can happen is something. Us patients can't always tell you when it's coming, next thing you know everyone is running. Epilepsy is very serious to me, and not the right people see. I thought God was taking me with him to... Continue Reading →

Meeting people through school and community activities is awesome; yet social media can be a little scary for some.

Each morning I wake up thinking " I don't wanna go to work," or "Damn, I gotta do this and that," which is nobody's fault but mine. It's about being an adult and owning up to responsibilities. Some of these things I signed up for on my own, other things like life, I didn't ask... Continue Reading →
Thanksgiving is about being thankful for all that you have received, you're blessings, you're curses. Why? Because they've helped you prevail.
