Living with epilepsy is an ongoing battle; fighting obstacles that others do not come across. My shirt summed it up pretty well, a warrior’s mentality with a poet’s soul 💜
One can either be simply a person with epilepsy, or a true purple warrior.
Having the willingness to stand your ground, speak your part, keep trying, all with a courteous manner makes a warrior.
I have been told that I am a “nice” “good” “friendly” person all my life, all the while my epilepsy is still checking in. That’s quite a challenge, but it’s part of being a warrior, managing both functional life and the problems epilepsy can bring.
