Another revelation

April 20, 2008

Here’s another thing that I haven’t told you about.  He is epileptic.  Yep, he has had it since he was in grade school.  Specialists say that it would be hard to cure already.  There is an operation that can be done, but it involves too much risk and the chance for being able to recover is like less than 20% or so.  

He has several medicines that he drinks every day.  It helps him avoid having seizures.  Usually when it’s super hot or super cold or he’s super tired, he would often have those episodes.

Yes, I have experienced talking to him on the phone and he would have a seizure.  It was scary the first few times since he would usually shout so loud all of a sudden, then he would lose consciousness altogether.  The only thing I can do is just put down the phone since he would end up sleeping for quite some time.

I admit this is one of the reasons why I’m still not meeting up with him.  I would probably freak out if he has a seizure when we’re together.  I’d probably panic and wouldn’t know what to do.  Well, he says is that the only thing to do is to just let him rest and sleep.
