i went to see my neurologist on wed and told him about what happened bout two weeks ago and he said that I was having break through or an aura and I was doing real good with my medication as long as I don't lose consciousness again, also I can drive with caution since I have three kids to think about. I also told him that I drove my auntie van for two hours and then I got tired and gave her back the keys, she said she's gonna have me drive more often, I said it depends on how I feel. I just cant up and start driving like I used to be able to do before.
 
I don't blame you for driving cautiously or when u feel okay. As drivers without epilepsy even considered I wish everyone would use the same reasoning. If you are not feeling well or have any reason that makes you hesitant to drive doing short trips at first is probably the way to go so you can get yourself back in the groove. I am still counting down the days myself hoping to keep everything under control. Then I Will be right in your same position at the end of this month. :woot:
 
That's what I was tryin to explain to her but she doesn't seems to understand me. how do I tell her without yelling at her or hurting her feeling like I wanna do? Good luck :)

I guess I would have to express it to her in a serious but sincere conversation about how you are having concerns because you don't want to hurt yourself or anyone else. It may inconvenience her but remind her of your children that you have and how being a mother that shows good responsible reasoning is important to you. You would want your children to make the responsible decision so make sure to display that in the actions of your own life. She might be inconvenienced and upset at first but things will have a way of working out for her even if someone else has to step in and help her instead.:hugs:
