Hit a bump, but back on the road

Thank you all very much for your prayers for me!
God has blessed me very much, with increased joy in Him, improving academic situations, and good health!

 Yesterday, during Biblical Literature, I had a strong aura that lasted about a minute, and it turned into a seizure. I didn't say anything about it, because I was hoping that it would not develop and didn't want to interrupt class unnecessarily, but as I've found a number of times before, it would have been better to interrupt the professor and say "I'm having a seizure." 
 I came to a while later, was taken to a dorm room on the first floor, since mine's on the fourth floor and if I had another seizure they didn't want to have to carry me down three flights of stairs. I rested there for over an hour, and felt ready to get up before Sam would allow me to, since he had directions to keep me resting for more than an hour. He got me my computer, and I started some homework while relaxing. He also checked my medicine dispenser for me, and brought it to me - I hadn't taken the morning's dose, which, after having the seizure, was good news. (I don't want seizures for no reason - that means I'm really getting vulnerable.) I took the medicine, and by the time dinner was over, I felt as if I hadn't had a seizure at all.

Monday there will be a conference call between me, my parents, and some LeTourneau University staff, talking about what they should do for future seizures.
Please pray for that.
