A STAR OPENS UP ABOUT HIS MEDICAL CONDITION
Because, really, that is what this is.  It's always good when famous folks do this.  Physical differences, unique medical conditions--they can happen to anyone.  As all of us with Moebius Syndrome know.  Read on--about Lil Wayne:
There's a reason Weezy feels woozy sometimes. 
In an interview 
on Wednesday's episode of MTV's RapFix Live, Lil Wayne opened up about 
his ongoing battle with epilepsy, which he said causes recurring 
seizures that can strike unprovoked and at any time. 
"No warning,
 no nothing, I don't feel sick. I get headaches real bad. And the 
headaches? I didn't get no headaches or nothing," the rapper told MTV 
News correspondent Sway Calloway.

According
 to Lil Wayne, he has no memory of the seizures when they happen, 
either, and is usually told about them afterward by family and friends. 
"I
 told them the other day, 'Y'all can tell me right now that y'all was 
lying, like, 'You know what? We lyin' ain't nothin,' and I'd have to 
believe them because I don't know," admitted the MC. "I go to sleep and 
wake up in the hospital. I don't feel anything. I just hope it stops 
happening." 
The 30-year-old Wayne (real name: Dwayne Michael 
Carter Jr.) has experienced several scary episodes over the last few 
months, prompting concerns about his health.

The
 hitmaker was hospitalized in the ICU of Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai 
Medical Center for six days following multiple seizures. He subsequently
 recovered only to be felled by another seizure on April 30 that landed 
him in the hospital again. 
On both occasions, Lil Wayne took to 
Twitter to let fans know that he was OK and thank them for their 
prayers. He also told L.A.'s Power 106 in March that he's an epileptic 
and prone to seizures, but "y'all just never hear about it." 
Either
 way, the TMCMB artist isn't letting the ailment slow him down any. 
Yesterday, he was in Miami to celebrate the release of his new shoe 
line, Spectre by SUPRA, and noted his doctor is cool with his 
activities.
