Diagnosed with epilepsy at the age of 13, Jane has navigated decades of neurological mayhem with a sharp wit and a resilient heart. Her memoir is more than a survival story – it’s a celebration of humor in the face of hardship.
“Epilepsy has thrown me into some outrageous situations,” says Jane. “But instead of drowning in frustration, I’ve learned to laugh – even when I dislocated my shoulder in my sleep or had a seizure at a comedy show. Humor became my lifeline.”
From EEG nightmares to falling off bikes and navigating disjointed emergency room visits in her fluffy housecoat, Jane invites readers into her world with unforgettable honesty. Through vivid storytelling and side-splitting commentary, “Laughing Through the Storm” proves that even life’s darkest moments can come with a punchline.
