My carry-on looks like a traveling pharmacy, my medication schedule runs on Vegas time, and my husband deserves an award for keeping up with both. Traveling with epilepsy takes a little extra planning, but staying home? Not a fucking chance.

TILL DEATH DO US PART. GOOD LUCK, BUDDY.

He flew to Vegas out of boredom. I gave him my number. Seven months later, I married the dude. From inappropriate jokes to holding my hand through seizures, here’s how a random night on the Strip turned into my favorite kind of chaos.
