“It was an anomaly they didn’t know what it was — I had these seizures. I never knew why it happened or what it meant or what it was going to do to me … nobody explained anything. Then the last two that I had — I was in a boat outside of Cannes, on a big yacht, and I was extremely stressed out … every seizure that I had was at a point where I was extremely stressed and I had two seizures … one they took me off the boat. I had this major grand mal seizure they took me to the hospital in Cannes, then brought me back to the boat and I had another seizure.
[That's when] they started to look at it seriously … I was in France, that’s where I got care, not here. And then when I came back, I was diagnosed with epilepsy, which no one had said to me over a period of 20 years … no one paid enough attention to diagnose me.
I’ve been on a drug for four years … I haven’t had a seizure, which is amazing — but I also got divorced, which I think is the real healer for me. I mean it! I am not stressed anymore!”
