I have a few people in my life that I class as heroes and I will just say a few brief words about them
No.1 is my Uncle he is always there to drive me about whether it is too work, the shops, to see my family, across the UK, or across a different country, he has been my travel partner for 12 years and he is willing to do some of the crazy stupid things that I take part in. He also checks to make sure that I have taken my meds morning and night. It is thanks to him that I get to live a relatively normal life where the restrictions of E do not hold me back form doing the things I love.
No.2 is a little Geordie lad that I briefly went out with last year, his reaction was great when I told him that I was epileptic, there was me cacking myself about spilling about the big E and he replied "is that it", he said he couldn't believe I was epileptic coz of all the things I have achieved which made me feel real good about myself. He took me for a spin on his motorbike, which is just about the best thing anyone could have done for me. He was the one that suggested that I chat to other epileptics, so here I am.
No.3 is my Boss, as well as my Boss she is my mentor and also my best friend, I told her about my epilepsy coz I had too, but it ended up being a really good move, apart from hero no.2 she is the only other person that I will talk about my E with, I use her as a sounding post when I am trying to decide what to do about my meds or on days when I am having a lot of seizures, she is used to me blipping out every hour and never comments, she offers a lot of encouragement and support and is always there to pick me up on a down day!!!
No.4 my parents, they noticed me having seizures at a young age and took me to see a neurologist. After I was diagnosed they never had any interest in my E, they acted like it didn't exist, in some ways that might have been a good thing, coz it meant that I wasn't wrapped up in cotton wool and was able to just 'get on with it' in the other hand, it meant that they weren't checking I was taking my meds and protecting me from the dangers all around. Even though they didn't really bother about my E they are good parents in every other aspect, I never wanted for anything, they fed my need to travel (I travelled with them at a young age) they always offered me encouragement with my schooling and they are still there at the sidelines of my life pushing me forward in my career, if I need anything they are still there for me and I normally sting them up for a few bucks here and there

) (but thats what they're for, right???)
I know that its probably cheating having more then one hero, but these are the people that have had the biggest impact on my life regarding E
