"I grew up with epilepsy, which first surfaced after I was bitten by a mosquito at the age of 9 months and it infected me with encephalitis. By the time I reached the age of 30, the disorder had worsened to include grand mal seizures."

"In 1994, I found help at Scripps Clinic in La Jolla, Calif., where doctors performed a right-side temporal lobectomy. After the surgery, I had to go through detoxification from prescription drugs such as Phenobarbital. Now, 10 years later, my life has changed in dramatic and simple ways: I can drive a car and not worry about having grand mal seizures; my thoughts are clear and uncluttered; my self-worth is elevated, as well as my relationships with family members."

“Through the Darkness....One Man's Fight to Overcome Epilepsy" details my personal struggles with epilepsy. The book is now in the text production stage at PublishAmerica for future release.

Las Vegas author details long battle with epilepsy in book

Through the Darkness: One Man's Fight to Overcome Epilepsy, a recently released book that details Mike Henle's long battle and eventual victory over the disorder, is available on several web sites and in four Borders Books stores throughout Southern Nevada.

From the time he was bitten by a mosquito at the age of 9 months and infected with encephalitis, Henle suffered from a seizure disorder— a chronic illness exacerbated by prescription drugs.
The petit-mal seizures worsened as Henle grew older and at the age of 27, he suffered the first of several grand-mal seizures.

He finally came under the treatment of a neurologist at Scripps Green Hospital in California and underwent brain surgery Dec. 6, 1994.

After the surgery, Henle went through detoxification from prescription drugs such as Phenobarbital. Now, 10 years later, his life has changed in dramatic and simple ways: he can drive a car and not worry about having grand-mal seizures; his thoughts are clear and uncluttered; his self-worth is elevated, as well as his relationships with family members.

The book recounts Henle's struggles with epilepsy and his frustrations through years of misdiagnosis and maltreatment. It was published by PublishAmerica in Baltimore, Md. and was released earlier this year.
Now 54, Henle lives in Las Vegas, where he handles public relations and advertising for several clients. His website www.mikehenle.com is currently under construction.

Websites carrying the book include www.amazon.com, www.bn.com (Barnes & Noble), www.publishamerica.com and www.authorsden.com.
