Brighton Marathon 2011 · 10 April 2011 ·

Epilepsy Action is creating a world without limits for everyone affected by epilepsy, connecting people with others, and providing support and information you can trust. We’re calling out the misunderstanding, prejudice and barriers that stop people with epilepsy living their best life.

Story

<p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Okay firstly as most of my friends know I was epileptic but was given the all clear about 16 years ago!!!.</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">I have lost, in the last 2 years, 2 neighbours that lived no more than 30 feet from me. (Sorry if this brings back memories to somebody), Yes it can kill!!! I have a cousin&nbsp;<span style="color: #000000; font-weight: normal;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">and one of my best mates</span></strong></span>&nbsp;also suffers from Gran Mal Seizures.</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">That's the depressing bit . In November 2008 I was smoking 60-80 fags a day and could drink like a Manta Ray hunting plankton.</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">The film Run Fat Boy Run comes to mind. So your money could be safe......... not!!!! I will make it.</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Now I am looking at running the Brighton Marathon for a cause.... It may not be a cause close to your mind but I will be doing more things for other worthy causes in the future. &nbsp;I will need some support and motivation.... Things have been tight for everybody last year but do me and the epileptic people out there a favour .... miss a beer or 2 and support me for a little run......Okay a bloody long run that I am dreading already. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Also pass this to your friends and like it in Facebook to help it on its way .........</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">Thank You !!!!</span></strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
