Moving away from his friends was hard enough, but being diagnosed with epilepsy shortly thereafter was even harder.Marc's story follows him from high school up to his present-day life as an author, teacher, husband, and father. His struggles with seizures, toxic medications, and loneliness were a certain recipe for disaster. Marc's sense of humor, support network, and successful search for a doctor who would save his life prompted him to make his private story public. Marc's message of turning his struggle into a strength will certainly resonate with teens and parents alike.
