| For those of you who maintain it's rational to believe in the supernatural without evidence, let me challenge you with this anecdote.
I'm 29 years old. At the age of 16, I was hanging out with some friends. My friend Bill told a really funny joke that I didn't laugh at because I realized that I was looking directly at Bill, but couldn't see his mouth. It just wasn't there. As I looked around, I realized I had a blind spot in my field of vision.
It grew... and eventually turned into sparkling lights which hung in front of me where ever I looked. Ever rub your eyes really hard until you see sparkles? That's what they looked like only I hadn't rubbed my eyes and they weren't going away.
They lasted for a half hour and then I was fine... for about 15 minutes when mind numbing pain set in that caused sensitivity to light, sound and vomitting.
I've had attacks like that every 10 to 30 days. For 13 years.*
Now, for those of you who maintain the supernatural is rational, please explain how any explanation other than 'migraine headaches' is rational.
*They're better now. About 4 years ago, I found a drug combination that works. I've managed to avoid the vomitting and the lion share of the pain... but I still get the sparkles every 10 to 30 days. |
