Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Epilepsy / November 2004November is Epilepsy AWARE Month
It may be Epilepsy Aware month in November but really I have not seen and adds or anything on the tv to suggest it, it proves to me that they only care about Cancer, TB, etc. and Not what I have or what we have Epilepsy. It makes me MAD!, I have Grand-Mal Seizures and I sure wish they would try and cure it instead of it being on the back burner so to say. Thanks, Tino > It may be Epilepsy Aware month in November but really I have not seen and > adds or anything on the tv to suggest it, it proves to me that they only [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > Thanks, > Tino Perhaps 'They' are not Psychic. If your local Epilepsy Association Chapter has not contacted the press, radio or TV, why blame the messenger? There was information in my newsletter from Local (Canada) Association, it's been on TV and in Newspaper a few times -- usually in passing, like 'it's going to be warm tomorrow, a good day for the Buskerfest on Queen Street west, featuring the Toronto Epilepsy Association main tent and other Charities and Support Clubs and Groups ' . *But our local chapter has put a lot of posters around Toronto (Subway and Bus stations, information boards etc) that include photos of Children playing and caption, "One of these children has Epilepsy, can you tell which one? " and of course you can't -- which was the point of the awareness advert. Then their www address and local phone number are at bottom for more information or to contribute (tax deductible to Canada residents). I expect the Morning TV shows here had people speaking on them, but since I don't watch TV then, I didn't see those. The News Channel I watch don't *normally carry any or many commercials, versus the mainstream stations so I don't have any statistics on whether those carried them either. But like I said, if your Local Chapter (or you) don't put a program in-place (preferably Mid October) it won't get done. G./ Take a look at that post you just made that begins as above. Look at the part you just _quoted_ !! Then look at the word "instead" and ask yourself if there isn't some problem with the way OE quotes.

If what we're discussing gets so garbaged up that it can't be followed properly, then our ability to discuss epilepsy is impaired - and unnecessarily I might add. > Have you considered a hobby? Currently, it's trying to help you see the light and pulling you out of denial so that you'll take the simple easy measure of fixing a problem that screws up the formatting of every thread that you're involved in.
