there is no mind. it's a myth.

30. one more thing-

my youngest had hidden epilepsy from a head injury as well. was told that there was a genetic thing here.
now, my kids are all "crazy"
i wondered about my middle kid who was an exceptionally clumsy toddler, and i was kinda, hmm, wonder if a half dozen black eyes before 2 is enough to cause this.
i have been posting about this stuff on my fb, and a friend piped up that she knew a very similar story, only this one was a about a guy who had nearly drowned at 5.
dingdingding.
middle kid was my only wonky birth. she has the cord wrapped around her neck. my labor kept stopping and starting, and she got a 2 pt ding on her apgar for color.

she has migraines and compulsive vomiting.
she's has a half dozen neuros, and has tried everything including botox for the headaches. right now that is failing too and she is trying new drug.
talking near daily crushing pain. i have wondered how she held onto at least one job after all the times she told me about being curled up on the stockroom floor in tears.

i have started substituting the word insults for injury or trauma.
seems like a small word till you remember your history. i mean, just the history of duels show how these fractal can play out.
