Several weeks later, I almost fell overboard on a boat because I seized as the same song came on. Soon, I realized it was happening with several different kinds of music.
I couldn't go to church, Christmas parties, or the mall. I had to quit my job and school because of people's cell-phone ring tones. I felt so isolated.
By February 2007, tests had shown that my epilepsy was caused by a diseased area in my brain. But my physician, Ashesh Mehta, needed to know the exact location in order to remove ...
