Author comments :
All my life, I have worked very hard writing books, articles,stories, going to TV interviews, going to washington to talk in front of congress and doing seminairs to help others empower themselves. I refused to let epilepsy to take control over my life. I am determined to overcome any obstacle in my life caused by epilepsy.

There is no reason to feel different from anyone else. You have the right to be happy, to live life to it's fullest and enjoy the beauty and love ones that surround us. I'll be honest I did not always feel life this, but I was not going to give up. I was determined to help myself and help anyone who suffered from epilepsy or any disorder or disability. I interviewed over over 400 people with epilepsy. I created techniques, inspirational words to inspire your soul and much more.

I even had one women email and she told me that if it was not for my books and my regiments she would have committed suicide. It brought tears to my eyes, but I am so happy that I can help others beside myself.

Editorials

Della Crews

"Life deals us many hard blows that we often don't expect. I admire the fact that someone like Stacey Chillemi was thrown a curve ball that may have knocked many of us down to the point where many of us may not have wanted to get back up, but she did. It wasn't easy but she possesses a determined spirit that won't let her give up. For that reason Stacey will go far and achieve whatever dreams she sets her mind to accomplish." -- Della Crews, Anchor/Talk Show Host, News 12, NJ
