That's right VeraBaker! Those that pray together stay together. When you put your trust in the Lord, all things work out for a married couple one way or another.
For those diagnosed later in life, how long did it take to overcome the sudden changes in your life? I was a total extrovert before seizures, always on the go. I never want to leave the house no because I'm scared of having a seizure in public or around friends most of which don't even know that I have them yet.

I have made a routine of taking my medications, however, when something disrupts that routine, I sometimes tend to forget to take my medication. How you found anything useful to help you remember take your medications?
Got a pill box to lay on my table, is a weeks supply at a time! Alarms on iPad and telephone come in handy! Thanks for asking
Those with epilepsy that had children what was your experience like? Did you have to be off your meds? Was it scary? I know I still have lots of time to worry and decide if I even want a family and Ik I can have the conversation with my doctor when the time comes but share your stories
