- About Me
- My book titled: Beyond my control is the true story of my life, beginning with my battle trying to beat the eating disease—anorexia nervosa. While trying to break the vicious cycle I was in another condition suddenly entered my life—epilepsy. I was seventeen at the time.
I describe my twenty year journey of living with epilepsy and how the unpredictable disease has not only impacted my life but the lives of everyone close to me.
The next fifteen years I operated my stained glass business and managed staff while battling an ever-increasing number of seizures. As my condition deteriorated and my post seizure responses became more intense, I was often prone to violent outbursts that threatened not only my safety, but the safety of anyone unfortunate to be close by!
I was offered seizure surgery which, (if successful) would provide freedom from a life on instability, danger, and stares from strangers. Beyond my Control provides an honest, emotional look into a highly complex and often misunderstood condition. With perseverance helped me break through the darkness and find hope on the other side.
Thank you for taking the time to read about: Beyond my Control.
Warm Regards, Stuart
