Believe it or not, one of the reasons I'm getting divorced has to do with my epilepsy. My husband just couldn't accept it. Certain challenges of living with it. It isn't necessarily that he was afraid I don't think, he just didn't know what to do once it got down to the true reality of the situation.

"You just need to get better." Was one of my favorite phrases that would come up with.

People that haven't been around Epilepsy for an extended period of time aren't going to understand unless they are truly willing to sit and stick through the tough times with you.(That's my bias opinion) And that may take time to find that special someone.

I had some bad relationships, before I found my husband of 18 years. Don't give up. I almost did. I was 40 when we walked down the aisle. Yes we lived together first, he is 7 years younger and I had 2 boys when I met him. But he is the love of my life, he gets tired of my seizures, I get tired of his sleep apnea, but I love him. It is hard. He was a little scared, but he said he knew I was the one. When I asked why, he said because you are everything I want in a woman. Don't give up.

It can happen He had a heart transplant and we spent 19 years at the hospital He passed away but those 10 years were my best 10 years because I understood his treatment someone may come along never give up

I had not seen my boyfriend for 47 years. We found each other and started a life together

Kathy: i have a very supportive husband that loves me and protect me. I hope others do to.
