Depression seems to go hand in hand when trying to treat seizure disorders. I can't decide if it is one of the many side effects of the cocktail of scrips or am I just having a hard time with the realization that one of four things will bring about my demise.
1. SUDEP
2. Fatal accident
3. Organ Failure due to side effects
4. or live a long "healthy" life
Being a husband and father of a 4 year old and given the choice I pick option 4. but I can't stop thinking that my time is short in this life. No I am not suicidal I am going through the period of acceptance which gives my wife some comfort. I really just want a chance to make a difference and leave a legacy (maybe through drug studies). I am thinking about making a video for my daughter so if I do encounter my demise before she gets to know her dad. I always thought I would live for ever but I have come to the realization that life is really just a race to the finish line and the looser gets to the finish line first.
What are some of your thoughts on this? Obviously everyone here wants option #4. But what are your main concerns?

If you could pick just one of the three options above what would you choose. SUDEP on the surface I think seems the peaceful option.
