#EpilepsyMyths: You CANNOT swallow your tongue. It may be swollen afterwards from biting it during the #seizure, but it CANNOT be swallowed. I once woke up after multiple #seizures with a tongue so swollen that I had to communicate with a tablet because I couldnโ€™t talk. So please stop believing that during a seizure a tongue can be swallowed. ๐Ÿคฅ๐Ÿ˜‘ AND DO NOT TRY TO PUT A SPOON IN THEIR MOUTH!! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿšซ #EpilepsyAwareness ๐Ÿ’œ#spreadawareness ๐Ÿ”Š

Abolish the Indian Act! Premier Kinew of Manitoba is absolutely correct. Thanks to @sarobertson_ for the post.

Wab Kinew calls on Ottawa to abolish Indian Act: "I'm not sure if that lines up with your vision of Canada, that we still have a race-based form of identification in this country. It's long overdue that we have a relationship with Indigenous peoples in Canada that reflects who we are as Canadians today."

Read The Disabled God Revisited by @LisaDawnPowell. It's a reexamination of Nancy Eiesland's landmark work, The Disabled God. Ms. Powell reinforces the message that God may be seen as disabled because of the wounds on the resurrected Jesus. Powerful. #disability #booktwt #books
cover of the book, The Disabled God Revisited by Lisa D. Powell with a painting titled Self Portrait 1 by Nancy Willis. The pastel portrait is of a woman sitting in a wheelchair. The figure and chair, in three quarter view, face to the right. Turning back towards the reader, the stylised head is angled down and nestles into her shoulder. The face is drawn in a sculptural fashion with curves of smeared pastel suggesting the depth of eye sockets and the bridge of a nose.

Read Theo of Golden by Allen Levi. Thoroughly enjoyed. It's warm, gentle, compassionate, reflective. The villain in this story is regret. Recommended. Also available in accessible formats from @CELAlibrary in Canada and @Bookshare in the US. #books #bookworm #booktwt

A good cause. A good message.
Epilepsy Foundation of America@EpilepsyFdnOct 23
Hi, I'm Deja. The Purple Pumpkin Project is special to me because it raises awareness for epilepsy and funds research. As someone with drug-resistant epilepsy, I know how important both are. I love that it gives people a chance to advocate and support a better future.

Louis Riel. In my opinion, he should be recognized as one of the Fathers of Confederation.
Bianca Swirlski-Queen Spam Pam, Beaver Czar ๐Ÿ@BSwirlsiOct 22
Today we honour the legacy of Louis Riel who was born 182 years ago today in Saint Boniface at the Red River Settlement in 1844. Among many things, Riel was a leader and a visionary who fought to protect the rights of the Mรฉtis Nation during the Red River and North-West Resistances.

Thoroughly enjoyed Trust Me On This by Lauren Parvizi. It's about two sisters who hardly know each other. They take a trip across California to see their dying father. Revelations and secrets abound. Entertaining. Recommended. Also available from @CELAlibrary. #books #bookworm
