With more than 40 types of epilepsy, and only one type is ever mentioned, which is the one on TV, it's no wonder that there is a lack of awareness about epilepsy and a stigma associated with it.
My body image problems started well after my breast cancer treatments ended. The side effects of my cancer treatments meant nothing to me. The loss of a breast didn’t really bother me. You could say that I wasn’t attached to it. My hair loss during chemo didn’t bother me, because I got more compliments on my wig than I have ever received about my actual hair.
