The Purple Elephant in Our House

My name is Dodie. I am a mother of four daughters. My youngest daughter was born in 1997, and in April of 1998, she was diagnosed with epilepsy. There is a saying in the epilepsy community: “I have epilepsy, epilepsy doesn’t have me.” While I want to believe this statement, and while I have done my best to always focus on the positive, and to live life to its fullest, I would be a liar if I told you epilepsy has not affected many decisions in our lives. Epilepsy has affected so many life choices, big and small. This blog is a place for me to share our experiences, our choices, our emotions, and our story.
