Seizure Salad (~Fustercluck Epilepticus~)

A salty, sometimes irreverent account of Micah‘s surprise diagnosis with epilepsy; how it would short-circuit his world, plus the efforts to re-wire his mind (...Brain surgery?!?...) so as to build a new life. ”Seizure Boy” courtesy of Watsky and used with permission.

Friday Feb 10, 2023
Friday Feb 10, 2023
Dan has survived two emergency brain surgeries, weeks in a coma, and months in a rehab hospital. What he found out along the way might surprise you: there is nothing like a brain injury to refocus the mind! Driven by a positive mindset, Dan battled through excruciating rehab exercises to rebuild his life and return to a job he loved.He’s grateful for the doctors who saved him and the friends and family who supported him. Now he wants to pay it forward.

Welcome Mitch Lo to the Family Fustercluck
Friday Jan 27, 2023
Friday Jan 27, 2023
I have the pleasure of introducing Mitch Lo; military vet, firefighter & EMT, and fellow epileptic. Mitch has a healthy attitude toward his condition, and some really intense experiences from being a first responder at Ground Zero during 9/11.
Mitch & I touch on the mental & psychological aspects, as well as medical roadblocks in our treatments. And, of course, random tangents here and there.
Enjoy!
