Definitely!!

Wonderful woman. It can be really hard on the spouse, my husband has always supported me and we've been married for 35 years. He always knew how embarrassed I got after having a seizure in public, especially when I lost control of my boarder. Not often but it did happen. He'd put his arm around me and lead me away to the car. I can never love him enough for the strength he's given me all these years. Please take care.

I live in the US.
I was diagnosed when I was 13. I have generalized grand Mal and absent seizures. I have break through seizures but after many years for the most part medicine is controlling the seizures now. Took a couple decades to get to this point.
In the meantime I worked a full time I.T. job, lived on my own, eventually got married raised a son sent him off to college and now am the lead singer in two classic rock bands.
BUT....as I do this it is all with knowing I could/do have seizures. I have to take care of myself.
I did not get to this point without fall downs and really deep depressions. Hole myself up in a room, watch TV, stay in pajamas and not eat. But I cannot stay that way...I had to pick myself up....well sometimes my husband, family or friends had to kick me in the ass to do it.
How did I get to work, car pools, co-workers, cabs, mass transit, family. When seizure free long enough I could drive.
When living by myself live had to live within walking distance of stores and banks.
None of it is easy I had/have to do it for me.
Best of luck hun! Go kick some epilepsy ass!

I'm in a job, but don't know for how long though. Had worse seizures yet at work couple of weeks back (2 seizures in 2 days at work) Colleagues came looking for me when they hadn't seen me for over 30 mins. Ambulance called. In hospital a week and a half. Reoccurring multiple seizures in hospital.
They've upped my medication and added another.
I've never felt so weak in all my life. They said " it's my body getting used to the increased medication ". I've been off work 4 weeks now, due back in nxt week, no doubt get a 2nd warning!!.
I was informed about the benefit PIP, I was assessed and got " 0 out of 12". Apparently" I should have seizures all the time before I may qualify for looking into "!!
Lose this job, and I'm in trouble with my mortgage...

I dont know if i could have survied if not for my wife.: sometimes things are not what they seem,I have grand mals ,and got married found job that accepted me gave me 30 yearrs had three children and six grand children and house.to most its look what he did even with epilepsy,truth is if not for my wife i wouldnt have done any of this.Without some kind of help and support most epeleptics willnot get to far in todays world..These goverments have no right to say no if we need a little help.
