Where do u live, house, apartment? What is ur schedule, do u work? Drive? How often do u have seizures? There are many factors that need to be considered to really understand your situation. Your question is a very important one.You definitely need a plan and guidelines to follow. I think if you can get through the next 2 - 3 years it will be fine. A 6, 7 year old will understand & know what to do. Sorry if I'm sounding like a stalker :)
