This is part of a month-long series that my teen daughter and I are writing about her life and learning to live with epilepsy. To start at the beginning, click here.

When we were researching epilepsy books, we came up on this quote and Beth loved it:

“I’m not an epileptic but you’re an arsehole. I’m important. I matter. I can do anything. I’m a sexy, strong woman that happens to have epilepsy. Do you get it? I have epilepsy but it’s not who I am.” — Ray Robinson, Electricity
