Pieter
I was in first, a bit hesitant to view this presentation, but upon opening, was simply delighted. For this lady is not only talented, but so very brave and courageous. Of course she has no alternative to her medial condition that was not of her making. But, she has turned this around to her advantage and very well done in making this in to a badge of success in a field of entertainment she is very good at.
The following was a short search of her on Wikipediaf or her back ground:
Maysoon Zayid is an American actress and comedian. Of Palestinian descent, she is known as one of America's first Muslim women comedians and the first person ever to perform stand-up in Palestine and Jordan. Wikipedia
Thank you for presenting
Karl

Pieter and Karl,
thanks for continuing the discussion in spite of the fact that there was a serious spammer in the forum. He/she/it posted 21 posts. I think that finally this time, thanks to Kai help also, I did it right and eliminated him and his posts with two cliks.
Referring to the problem of this lady with Palsy, it seems that we went a long way and it is so much easier than it used to be for the society to accept people with disabilities and for these people to have more or less normal lives.
Frankly, all of us have some disabilities in some times of our lives. I take seizures pills every day in the morning and in the evening and they don't cause any discomfort and keep me safe and without seizures. Probably this would be more difficult 20-50 years ago - the pills had more side effects and did not prevent the problems like now.

Thank you most kindly in removing that idiot, the nuts seem to be populating in spite of removal.. I am very sorry of the situation of seizures, but very happy you have the medicine for it. yes, it would seem that withen our lives, some of us do develop some sort of disabilities. As with you, mine is this pace maker to live with. It is one that has its own computer that not only senses changes and makes compensation to keep things normal. It has a memory that records such changes and one this previous year was my accidentally touching an electric fence. The incident, time and date was recorded and read later whilst at the doctors office. My heart is normal but at the time, a record was placed in memory of a very rapid heart beat for a short time. It is good we live in times of excellent medical devices and procedures. Karl

Karl,
when I was 2.5 I had bacterial menungitis. My parents thought that they lost me. I was partly paralyzed for several weeks. I had seizures. In spite of that I had more seizure for the next several years until 1997. But the medicines were not good then, so I waited until after I had Ela. Then I had another couple of nucturnal seizures that prompted me to start taking medicines, that at this point where much better
