i had a conference call with dr. francamno toady...

and she thinks my seizures are really distonia from instability in my cspine. she wants me to where a rigid neckbrece that goes down around my shoulders to identify if that helps some of the episodes, we are hopeful!

Good morning, Molly. (I love that name; my grandmother's name was Molly.) I  will pray that Dr. Francamno, with his/her suggestion of a neck brace, can find the answer to help to control your seizures.
