The starting of my senior year was a blast I was ready to graduate until something tragic happened that I couldn't even cope with when I was told what was going on with my health. I had just gotten my license my first job. I had payed for all of senior funds. I was ready to graduate and be a college student. All of this went down the drain when I had my first seizure.
The months of August - October 2019 I was complaining of headaches well not complaining, because, I never told anyone that I was having them. During class I would fall asleep. I even did weird things not expected of me. Chewing my phone, eating my AirPod. All of this leading up to the infection in my brain. I didn't think much of it because I was working at Walmart during the school week and on the weekend.
I was also living with my grandparents in Sarasota going to school in north port. I had to be up to get for school at 4am I left the house for school at 5am it took atleast 30-45 minutes to get to the bus stop from my grandparents house. The bus came around 6:30. So I was thinking I'm falling asleep because I'm tired from work getting off sometimes at 9-10pm and getting up early in the morning.
October 28th I wasn't feeling well and went to the clinic to lay down that same day I was sent to the hospital.

October 29th I had a seizure in my grandparents living room and they sent me to the hospital again and from that day on I was in the hospital for 3 months

October 29th I had a seizure in my grandparents living room and they sent me to the hospital again and from that day on I was in the hospital for 3 months. My doctors not knowing what was wrong with me why was I having seizures. I was diagnosed with encephalitis. Inflammation of the brain, often due to infection. The infection may be bacterial or viral. In some cases, encephalitis may be the result of an immune system disorder. Encephalitis can also cause severe headaches and confusion. I kept asking my mama was I pregnant.
