By watching all these episodes of "House" it makes you wonder if doctors took a peak at this character and said" I think I could manifest him!" More often than not doctors are not known to be that much of a people person. They diagnose. They don't have time for the emotions and feelings that patients bring alone with their symptoms. I have a new found appreciation for doctors. Even their rudeness. I have encountered enough doctors in my life that somehow missed that " being personable" chip. Except for my neurologists. Somehow, that field took into account that while the brain and the nerves play a part of different neurological problems..ultimately...the feels come along with it. And for that I can be grateful. I was practically born with Epilepsy. I know my life without out because I allowed myself to believe I had outgrown. And for 8 beautiful years...that lie was true. I know better now. And so did the doctors that warned it was never quite something you walk away from. But at least I got a fighting chance at that lie. Being an adult with it now I don't allow myself to be held back by it. However, I know my own limits. And I am more knowledgeable about my condition. Being informed and educated helps. I am not my own Doctor...but if watching an episode of House desensitizes me to seeing a person with seizures..then this show..."House" is more than just a show. It's a valuable lesson.
