Epilepsy Demons have names: Ignorance, Intolerance, Discrimination and Apathy. Epilepsy isn't a pretty disorder. People would rather turn their heads and pretend not to see a seizure. Shirley shares her struggles with Epilepsy through stories and poems. She mixes perseverance with splashes of laughter; despair with splurges of hope. Through her journey, she keeps her faith. She knows that today the Demons will not win.
