Sadly some ignorant people still think it is even though the factual evidence that show it's not is readily available to educate them...

Idk. As I get older, I start to realize why elders would say to choose someone who is in good health or at least someone who doesn't have major genetic disease, disorders, etc., if you want to bear healthy children. Sometimes you already fall in love with someone before you learn of their health. That is when it could be hard to let go and you just stick with them through it all.

I think the elders don't like it because they see that person as not being able to help you much if they got a handicap to begin with.  The elders are hoping you can find someone who can help you reach your full potential.  That's their take since they don't know the other person personally.

No... for the reason that I'm all for the out door type of person and would prefer someone without such condition.

I have seizures for the last 8 yrs.  I only had it once or twice a year when I first started. I faint or blackout but nothing else.  It has been 5 yrs since I haven't had one at all.  I still take medication to treat it. 1 pill per night.  There is really no diagnosis in finding out what is the real cause.  I do have on and off blurry speech and memory loss.  It hasn't stop me from anything.  Im a SAHM and still take care of everything 95%.  I never bother my husband at work in 20 yrs that he's been working.  Very few time just to let him know I'm at the hospital giving birth.  Im not distracting my husband from thinking I'm going to depend on him because I can't do anything. 

If people are going to put me down as not being healthy.  That's them because we are not all perfect  100%.  Down the road there is always something like a minor health problem. 

Elders always want one that is in perfect health.  Screw them.....  My husband has more health problems then I do and more disturbing.  I poke fun at him because I have to clean up after it.  Life and marriage is always better when you have no in-laws or parents bugging about little things.  My in-laws use to make little negative comments about me but both are no longer here to see what their son  is going through.  It's why my husband better appreciate me because I've always been good to him.

My husband has a client that said her new daughter in law was having seizures on and off daily.  On days that she have it the family freak out because they don't know what's to do.  On days that she don't  have it she's normal.  They couldn't take it anymore and send her back.  They don't have any kids yet or she wasn't pregnant so it was the perfect timin to do it. Her husband even gave her some $$ because he told her that she came into their family for a while so......... 

I can understand early in the marriage if that happens..... 

Hmong people think everything is bad.... I dont know where their ignorance mind come from either.

Ignorant people usually have a very narrow view too so if they see one thing, they think it applies to all...Probably "come from" generations of ignorance...Sa d but true in some cases...

That Hmong girl that was returned for a refund case happened here in California so you would think people would utilize the readily available facts before making such decisions but sometimes "ignorance" and gullibleness can't be help...

People needs to be educated about the condition. No one ask to be born like that. 

As long as they do not hurt themselves or the condition takes them to the nxt level where they can not come back then there is no concern.  It is like a tick to me. 

The one question is if a person has it n u are there, are u going to panic n be embarrass by it?

I don't because im matured like that.  The public can get a frightening experiences if they are not aware of the situation.

There was a Hmong lady in Laos who had epilepsy. Her husband loved her so much, each time she fell down, he would grab her and raise her up and hold her real tight in his arms.

I don't mind but I understand why the elder is against it. Back in the old days, there were no hospitals or medication readily available and they weren't educated about these diseases. That's why they called it "qaug dlaab peg". It's just the same with families/clans that have a history of leprosy... the elders are strongly against that too. They think it's genetic but it's just a virus.

I saw a lady who's been divorced twice because sometimes she'd just black out and collapse.  Feel bad that the men she married couldn't look past that.

There's a lot of successful well known people who have seizures or epilepsy seizure.  Such as Vincent Van Gogh, Edgar Allan Poe, Theodore Roosevelt, Prince, Alexander the Great, Napoleon Bonaparte, Julius Caesar are only of the few of the many people who have that health condition.

You know if i trip in public, i will end up dancing like it is a part of the show. 

So if my future wife falls n shake, i will fall n shake with her.

People needs to be real with their acceptance of unconditional love.  Don't be like my cuz from daygo.  Raised a beautiful husky for 5 years n now wants to get rid of her just because he wants a male guard dog.  His husky he say is too nice n will help the crooks carry that big screen tv out. 

I always dig deeper n have realized not to let society dictates your decision for you.  This is nothing like a business where one must listens to their customer's demands.  No one loves you like daddy is the saying. 

Out of respect. I only ask her parents if i can marry her.  I don't need no one else opinion into the matter.  I don't want to hear this i told u so bull crap.  With that, I'll fire back with an i know you can't.
