diary of a seizure patient, episode 4

[411alina]

hi bella! thank you for sharing your story. i am epileptic too. at first it was so difficult for me to accept and to live with it. some times i feel unwanted and people treat me different. they are kind but no one can give me a permanent job. i don't have children yet but i am sure it will be hard to raise them because sometimes we can't look after ourself. ive passed tough moments and i hope this will end one day. take care bella.

i was epileptic since the age of 5. I immigrated to the USA so I can have treatment at the age 27. I was giving Dilantin and phenobarb and that controlled my seizures and the last time I had it was on 1974. I'm 67Yrs now retired after 40 yrs working in the USA-but i do not drink but I take med. Reg

I achieved so much with epilepsy and without but mainly I thank god for my children and thank god for the normal life that he (GOD) helped me live it.

I hope my story can give you some hope Too
