My name is Margie and I have epilepsy. It sounds like a dirty little secret when so simply put, which is how I have felt about my seizures for most of my life.

I don't like divulging this one major health problem of mine even to close friends. I can't take the sympathetic looks and cooing reassurances from people who don't know what it's like to wake up in an ambulance with EMTs shouting rapid-fire questions.

Exactly one year ago this week I was having my first panic attack. After working faithfully for four years at a rafting company in Maine, my boyfriend, Chris, and I were unexpectedly unemployed. I was a wreck. What would we do now?

Four days later I got a response from my resume, "We'd love to have you work for us! We'll contact you soon. - Brandi, ACE Adventures." I was caustically optimistic. Where was ACE again? West Virginia! I hadn't really thought about what was involved in going that far.
