"Having a place where William’s disease is not strange... can be talked about clinically has brought me peace." Does "everything happen 4 a reason?" Learn what our friend Josh, #AVM parent, thinks & whether it changed after his son, William's, passing.  linktr.ee/TAAF15

@Simshanley Yes, this piece goes back to the first class I took with you! Memories! ❤️

Congratulations, @vanessagarza317–I loved this piece in its earlier iterations, and even more now. Writing is revision, after all. ❤️

"Leaning over the cold, white countertop, the left side of my body turns warm. My left cheek, ear and head burn. But I do not look different. No one can see what I feel inside, a misfire in my brain, a seizure." @vanessagarza317 on her cerebral firestorms: magazine.nd.edu/stories/cerebr…

@ethanfreak @GrubWriters @RehmasMama @HuffPost Thank you for sharing this. It took my breath away.

@McClurewrites Thank you, Judy! ❤️

@ethanfreak @GrubWriters @_SarahEGrimes @splitlipthemag These words really struck me…Or perhaps the truth of us is more akin to a pair of hands: just alike but fundamentally different, our mirror images incapable of being superimposed… Amazing, Sarah!

@ethanfreak @GrubWriters @_SarahEGrimes @splitlipthemag Amazing piece, Sarah! Congrats! Your words are beautiful!

@JenGilmanPorat @hobartpulp @f_e_dinger @ethanfreak @GrubWriters I am so happy that my essay made its way to you! My heart is full. I’m going to send a private message to you so we can chat more.

@vanessagarza317 @hobartpulp @f_e_dinger @ethanfreak @GrubWriters I just read this for a class. I’m a fellow brain surgery survivor and ongoing consumer of Keppra. I’m sending your essay to my husband. This is so validating! Thank you :-)

So thrilled to share my hermit crab essay - A Medication Guide - thanks to @hobartpulp and non-fiction editor @f_e_dinger. Shout out to instructor @ethanfreak and my @GrubWriters classmates along the way. #hermitcrabessays #lyricessays #epilepsy hobartpulp.com/web_features/a…

@ndmagazine Thank you, @ndmagazine, for letting me tell my story and raise awareness. I am honored to share my words with the ND family.

@ethanfreak @19fredlynn @GrubWriters @RedSox @WBUR @cogwbur I love this piece, Ethan. My son starts his first season of baseball in a few weeks, so this is all the feels for many reasons. ❤️
