Epilepsy a touchy subject, I guess

[CrAz3D]

Joy Bardwell doesn't think so. The Daytona Beach, Fla., woman has epilepsy — repeated seizures. So does her 3-year-old daughter. So when a recent Two and a Half Men episode on CBS featured womanizer Charlie (played by Charlie Sheen) faking epilepsy and describing himself as "damaged goods" whose wedding was canceled because he was "flopping around on the altar like an epileptic trout," Bardwell wasn't laughing.

"To hear someone on TV refer to my daughter as 'damaged goods' just broke my heart," Bardwell says.

Pretty soon we won't be able to make fun of jack shit...there ain't nothing cool about that.

Free speech exceptions don't protect you from getting your feelings hurt.
People need to take stuff alot less serious.


I think my friend has this I do believe.  We were sitting in anthropology one day & he started to shake somewhat violently, it stopped shortly after.
Scared me, I hadn't seen it happen before
