I had to cancelled and reschedule my spring/summer appointment due to vehicle trouble so I only had 3 appointments in my first year.

My dad had his first seizure when I was 10 years old. I remember being confused by his reaction to his developing epilepsy, and my family members felt the same way. He seemed to want to ignore what had happened, and he seemed to be in a mixture of complete denial while also being aware of it and just not caring enough or wanting to be careful enough.
