Just Looking for other people to talk with

Tue, 10/03/2006 - 20:55
I have had E for about six years now, somewhat controlled I guess. My husband is great but does not really understand all there is to this. My grandfather and aunt have it but I don't talk to them. Is there any advice some one could give me about how to handle this.

Hi grumpybear! sorry to hear you're having a difficult time. I am still in the diagnosis phase right now, so I don't think I would be much help to you. But I will try, what's going on exactly?

Hi Grumpybear. I'm sorry,too, that you are having to deal with E. Its a bad thing to have to go through. What types do you have? How old are you? I'm 29, married, have 2 kids (girls). Have had it all my life but didn't really know it until after my 1st daughter was born in 1997. I hope you stay with us and enjoy it here. There is lots to learn and lots of friends to make. Have a good day.

Hi, I'm still learning to deal with seizures myself, if I hear anything that might be helpful, I'll pass it on.
