Summary
Courtney was a young mother juggling a job and family when her world suddenly collapsed. Out of nowhere, she began having up to 30 seizures a day. Life as she knew it changed—simple tasks like driving, grocery shopping, and daily routines became impossible. Desperate for answers, Courtney found herself in a frustrating search as doctors were left baffled. But the true cause of Courtney’s seizures was buried deep within her body, hidden in the trauma she did not remember.
Courtney’s journey is a powerful reminder of how unresolved trauma can manifest in our bodies and wreak havoc on our lives. Please note, this story includes discussions of abuse and sexual abuse, though no explicit details are shared.
