Disclosure: As a reminder I don't go back and correct any mental errors while writing because that is true to how my brain works with living with epilepsy. In order to understand this by someone just joining, one example at times I might speak a seteances out ouf order, or repeat them, spelling.
Why and how MyGlitch came about brief Re-cap
Welcome to those which are new followers & thank you for reaching out with questions. I will use your questions, in various topics. We began MyGlitch blog in 2021 to not only raisw Epilepsy Awareness, but also help me gain a network as we moved states and I am at home not being able to walk alone and unable to ever drive due to my various uncontrolled seizures. The core reason is our family believes fully that sharing our story will assist others with their own journey. Epilepsy is an "invisible condition" for most. I encourage you to go back & read the first blog on September 29th, 2021. Thank you to the original & continued followers.

How MyGlitch has Evolved
I started very simple, and with no true graphics and was amazed on how quickly I had many reaching out being so basic, supporting Team Parmer. Due to this We were lucky to have a friend like Steve Gordon or known as RDQLUS, a great artist to help create my Logo Glitch. The lightning bolt symbolizing the brain glitch that fires off during a seizure. From there, created a FB page dedicated to MyGlitch/IG unfortunately both were hacked and for now no longer used. Hence; why it is only shared on my Twitter and or those that have signed up for blog entry noticiations or with others that share my blog on their SM. (Thank you to those who do that)
Come March 22, 2023 it became a goal to have me blof 3x a week with full graphiccs and new format : Did you know Mondays, Wellness Wednesdays, and Friends & Family Fridays(that's where I shared others their stories nad or just sharing epilepsy advocates, and my ffamily. We also added a clothing store, so people could wear these and have others ask what is MyGlitch, an easy way to start a conversation about Epilepsy.(there are 3 t-shirts now which are uni-sex.)
These ended on November 10th, 2023(read about a fellow epilepsy warrior that date) due to a program called PRC that I started at Mayo Clinic for variuos conditions. You can go to my husband Brent's entry on Deecmber 12, 2023 to learn more.
On January 28, 2024 an unexpected surgery had be done, and again Brent provided an entry for me. Due to this and various other reasons I was unable to blog again until end of June, then more Glitches, so came back in October at random times through November (Epilepsy Awareness Month).
More Glitches along with some celebrations to focus on until now in February I Am BACK!
2025 format for now my goal is 1x a week and back to the basics.
I appreciate all the continued support from many near and far to our family and by supporting us, you're also advocates for the millions that live with their own Epilepsy journey.
