hi, make sure you have a complete record of your seizures. that is a personal journal, daily based. if people are not going to be speaking on your behalf, take notarized statements as to their knowledge of your seizures. Medical records, and MD statements. The more written documention you have the better. Includ the activities that you are doing in an attempt to live a healthy life style. diet, exercise, avoiding things that would possibility cause problems. ie. drinking, smoking, not being compliant with doctors treatment plan. hope it helps. rikk good luck
