To top that off, I know somebody who went as far as having some kind of box put in her neck to stop her from having epileptic seizures that she has never had to guarantee that she stays on disability; life is so good on disability, that she had personalized license plates put on her car with the name of the thing that she had put in her neck.

Really? How long ago was that? I just searched the procedure. It's still experimental from what I'm reading and a last resort procedure when meds fail to control seizure activity. IOW there would be a lot of vetting through several physicians for this procedure to even be considered.

Now sometimes EEG's do not pick up epileptic seizures. I can pass an EEG with flying colors and I have epileptic seizures. BTW there are many forms of it. Mine isn't the loose consciousness and fall down time. Mine jerks the living daylights out of my upper torso due to certain auditory and visual stimulations. Makes driving real interesting. LOL

There is also a procedure where such an electronic device is placed in the neck and connected to the brain for relief from severe depression. Again a last resort procedure it looks like.

I suspect that some taxpayers might call it a "squeezebox" as they wrap their hands around her scamming neck.
