That is fantastic. I do have more patience than others around me. But for me that is the way that I grew up. I was always the one who wanted to do the best that I could. I also was ever selfish.

Me 4 years old but only when I turned 21 I heard it was an underdeveloped brain that caused the seizures before I went for my 4 brain operations

ive been there

Wow, great traction on this question. Thanks for sharing. I see a common thread here that people took life for granted pre epilepsy. And after realise that life is worth fighting for and strive a little harder. For me I didn't come across this easily. Being diagnosed so young, it was just life. So, now that I go to gym every day and lead a healthy lifestyle, I am amazed at all that I can do. I just bare in mind that the things I don't do aren't good for me anyway.

I wasn't diagnosed until a couple years ago at the age of 21. I was on my way home one day and blacked out, Six months later I had a second seizure and was considered epileptic. It has been hard, knowing what life was before epilepsy, knowing the limitless life I lead, but since epilepsy I have started to realize that I was taking much of that limitlessness for granted. I thought that this would hold me back but it has only made me want to fight harder for a better life.
