Found out when I was 12 yrs old....I have Epilepsy. Found out when I was 12 yrs old. Sad thing, I was misdiagnosed for about 15 years. Not the Epilepsy part, but the type of Epilepsy. The meds. I took really messed with my mind. Being a teenager on medicine that made me sick (emotionally & physically) is not a good combination. My friends have always been understanding about my Epilepsy so I'm very blessed in that aspect. What people can't fathom is my daughter saw her mommy have a grand mal seizure when she was 2 yrs old. Now me having seizures don't effect her. It's sad that she isn't shocked so young. A friend asked me who to call if I have a seizure. I said my husband & my daughter. My daughter knows how to take care of me after I have a seizure. I also told her Girl Scout troop leader if I ever have a seizure don't force her to leave me. She knows what to do & would probably become VERY agitated if they made her leave. I am proud to say my daughter is more "seizure smart" than most adults I know!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
