Gradual Recovery

When at school I suffered petite mal epilepsy until in my last year, following a brain operation and change of medication I stopped having seizures in February 1985. Following the operation I was seriously mentally disabled for over 15 years until in Summer 1998, following writing my life experience out, and thinking back on what I'd wrote, my brain miraculously reactivated and I started a long term but promising recovery. To look at many of the techniques I've used to recover, very well, please feel free to visit the 'Emotion' Section of website index poetryemotion.org.uk
