I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was 17, and when I was 23 While attending college my goal was to become a physical therapist and personal trainer, but then my health condition nearly ruined my goal. I suffer from epilepsy and had to stop working-out because of a fall during a seizure that injured my shoulder, I went from 192lbs to 246lbs in 5 months.
I had no other option but to finally decide to undergo an operation labeled an "Temporal Craniotomy " a procedure that was 6 hours long. The operation included the removal of a portion of the front right Temporal Lobe, a portion of the Hippocampus and a section of the Amygdala. The accumulative amount of brain matter removed was the size of a golf ball.

I started bodybuilding and working out to improve my condition but also prove people wrong about limiting themselves!
I LOVE working out because it is a stress relief and I know that I am doing something productive and beneficial in life. Never forget that while your sitting there playing games, joking around, partying, someone else is succeeding! Push yourself!
