Hey there!

My name is Nikole.
I'm 14 years young.For some reason you have been brought to my blog. :)And this is my first post.On june 16th I had my first seziure. It happened to be at school. (I attended KIPP  so this was during the summer session.) An ambulance was called,a scence was caused. Well, that's how I felt. I was so out of it as I was rushed to the local Children's hospital , I told one of the EMT's he was cute. I recived major support as I spent the night at the Emergency room : My school college counsler stayed with me, My dad and his employees , My mom and most of the people at the hospital , my friends, and my little brother. I was still majorly embaressed! Yet, I still put on a brave face. I was lucky that my mom used to work in the Neurology department. I was able to get a quick appointment. My parents thought  that this would be my first and only seziure. But, before I even made it to my appointment I had another seziure. :/ During , my appointment i was diagnosed with Epilepsy. This was a major blow for me. This made me very self conscious. I was also supper worried. I stayed up many nights worrying. It has taken me awhile but i'm not as worried or self conscious as I was at the start. Bringing us to the reason I made this blog.  This blog is to help raise awarness about epilepsy and to help children and adults with epilepsy. By telling my story and more.
