All you have to do is go the search engine to the left and type in absence and you will find a ton of information. Good luck.

I'm 32 and have absence & complex partial seizures...primarily absence. Whaddya wanna know? You're a little vague here. Are you looking for impact on work? Impact on relationships? Impact on day to day life? What they are like? Tell me what u want to know, and I'll do my best. Perhaps post a few questions or something. ~ Erin
