Kay is pulled to the Other Place and is seized, both body and mind. Is it Epilepsy? Mental Illness? Or something darker?
Kay is the daughter with the affliction. She is diagnosed with Epilepsy and she and Joyce, her mother, struggle with the medical community to try to understand the illness and to find a cure or a way to adapt to the symptoms. Kay is later diagnosed with mental illness. The line between the two is thin. Then Kay is suspected of being possessed.
Here the lines between the suspected reasons for the afflictions, become even more clouded.
Kay is pulled to the Other Place and is seized, both body and mind. Epilepsy is, by definition, unexplained seizures. Mental illness is also medically unexplained. And then there is the possibility of evil seizing.
