Back when I was pregnant with Natalie, I had the opportunity to see the Da Vinci exhibit at The Met.
It was hot in there (a few fans with crowds of people) making it uncomfortable for a fat pregnant chick.
But even worse, the chicky in front of me had an epileptic seizure.
Don’t know if it was from the unfortunate heat or some other factor.
It was the first time I witnessed someone having an epileptic seizure.
Not knowing what to do, I stepped back and a woman not too far away rushed over to help.
A few years later, my friend’s little girl was diagnosed with epilepsy.
She’s now very involved with PEP out in LA so I am better informed than I was years ago.
Everything I hear just makes me wish there was a way to stop those seizures for good.
I didn’t even realize people were concerned about that when airing music videos.
Never even knew the Harding Test existed.
But I’m glad it does and happy it is being followed. Kudos to MTV.
Since Gnarls Barkley’s video for RUN may cause epileptic seizures it is not being allowed to air.
