Days are shorter or longer depending on how much we help ourselves. We can all relate to this. I am confident to say that without good coaches and doctors my days would be endless!
Coaches are a source for providing tested training programs and motivational pep talks. Doctors are a source for providing successful treatment options and medical explanations. Obviously, whether you are running a marathon or living with epilepsy you will have happier days if you have great coaches and doctors.

The gun goes off and you are caught up in a mad dash as everyone starts running along the course. A doctor tells you that your child has epilepsy and a similar rush to search for answers occurs. These experiences tell you to slow down and not make any mistakes, however your heart tells you to run with the emotion and everyone else be damned. That is when you need to err on the side of experience. The first few weeks dealing with Epilepsy should be spent gathering information and support from doctors, friends and family. Likewise, the first mile of a marathon should always be targeted at your Marathon Goal Pace (MGP) or slower. Try hard to prevent the chaos of an emotional start from straining the marathon journey ahead of you. Once outside of the Hospital, Leanna and I set off to learn about something we knew little about. A few decisions early on helped make a bad situation better. |
