Hello, Anon,

I can't help you on epilepsy, but I guess to register you have to follow the instructions... Choose a nickname, provide an email address, then you'll receive a password (you will be able to change it) via email... If it doesn't work, please post your problem in the help section.

0 Grey's Anatomy fan, eh? I've been searching the internet for "code black". I'm a medical transcriptionist and even I didn't know what it meant. Not hard to guess though. Hostile emergency.. interesting. What all does that entail? Can't wait till next Sunday to find out!02br
