does anybody also have anything like this with there epilepsy?

For the past year I have supported Caroline in her classes at college. she is very able and articulate and contributes greatly to work in class.

however, there have been several occasions during this time that I have been aware that Caroline was unable to continue with her work in class. she became very pale and quiet. she seemed unable to respond to comments or questions and she seemed less aware of her surroundings

On these occasions I encouraged Caroline to go home and rest I know from her that on each of these occasions Caroline has experienced some kind of episode at home and has needed considerable time to recover.

I am fortunate that I have had previous experience of similar symptoms with one of my own children who was diagnosed with epilepsy at age ten months

I am glad that during this past year Caroline and I have been able to anticipate a situation and that Caroline has been able to return home before she had to deal with an episode in pubic

I hope that this information is helpful.

cazzie :)
