Or maybe it was because of the things I had heard about epilepsy and about people living with epilepsy: that they would never live on their own; that they would never travel on their own or even get work; that they were outcasts, with a spirit in them that they needed to be delivered from.
Ou talvez fosse devida ás coisas que eu ouvira sobre a epilepsia e sobre as pessoas epiléticas: que elas nunca iriam viver por si próprias; que elas nunca iriam viajar por si próprias, nem arranjar trabalho; que elas eram proscritas; tinham nelas um espírito  de que precisavam livrar-se.
