Hello everyone
I am sad to say that someone I consider close to me has died about 4 hours ago. He was my cousin's boyfriend and my friend. When I first met him he made a positive impression on me because I was going through hard times myself. This is because he had the same condition as I had, epilepsy. At the time he was currently stable with his and I was still struggling with mine but he always gave me hope that someday I will not have to worry about my condition as much anymore and that someday I would be under control. I had also found out he had MS along with the epilepsy but he was fighting strongly against. He was always an inspiration.
About an hour ago I found out he died. He was spending time down at the lake with some of his friends where he drowned. He was swimming and he went below the surface, his friends didn't think nothing of it at first but then they realized he was not coming back up. They pulled him out of the water, attempted CPR and he was air lifted to the hospital but he was already gone. The doctors believe he had a seizure.
I thought I should tell you guys this because I have no idea if I will be able to go on Teamspeak and talk without bursting into tears so I may be on but probably typing. Also, this incident has made me slightly fearful again but I know I have to stay strong for his sake. He was only 20 years old, I'm 18. It really has put my life into perspective.
Love all you guys,
Butterfly
