Hi there,I don't have epilepsy, but my son does. I love my son just the way he is. I'm not saying dealing with this is all peaches and cream, I know how traumatic it is. It looks scary, yes. But as someone to,d me "it looks worse than it really is". Is your boyfriend a good caring person that treats you with respect and dignity Epilepsy is NO different than having any other condition. Would a few seconds/minutes ruin everything's. It should not. I personally think that there are worse things out there, and you find that out as you become older and wiser.If he is a loving, honest, caring man, then what difference does it make?
