December is AIDS Awareness Month There are more than one million Americans living with HIV. However, about one in five of that million is unaware that they are infected. Each December 1st, World AIDS Day, is dedicated to spreading world-wide awareness of the AIDS pandemic caused by the spread of HIV. Serving as the kick-off for the entire month of awareness, the need for money and improvement in education is a major driving force. Throughout December, many organizations host fundraising events such as walks and conferences throughout major cities. During the month, it is common for people to sport red ribbons, which is the global symbol for solidarity with those that have HIV or AIDS.

Epilepsy is a neurological condition that from time to time produces brief disturbances in the normal electrical functions of the brain. Normal brain function is made possible by millions of tiny electrical charges passing between nerve cells in the brain and to all parts of the body. When someone has epilepsy, this normal pattern may be interrupted by intermittent bursts of electrical energy that are much more intense than usual. They may affect a person’s consciousness, bodily movements or sensations for a short time (www.epilepsyfoundation.org). These physical changes are called epileptic seizures. That is why epilepsy is sometimes called a seizure disorder. The unusual bursts of energy may occur in just one area of the brain (partial seizures), or may affect nerve cells throughout the brain (generalized seizures). Normal brain function cannot return until the electrical bursts subside. Conditions in the brain that produce these episodes may have been present Read the full article →
