Overview

After Deborah's first grand mal seizure she was not able to participate in physical education at school and her play time at home suffered greatly. She began to resent other children for being able to do what she could not. She was limited to making mud pies in the carport, playing school, and jumping rope. Then two doctors and one operation took her life from Mud Pies and Jump Ropes to roller coasters and camping! She has shared her story so that others will see that no matter what your burden there is always hope.
