How Can You Work For A Company

Without them knowing about your seizures? Worried about future discrimination for my kids?

Nearly every job I have had has been understanding and accomodating as much as possible. My current employer is amazingly wonderful. If I start to get auras or have any type of feelings like I might have a seizure they get me on a table and either get a fellow massage therapist to give me a massage or just sit there with me. What ever I need.

By law they are not allowed to. But, I have heard to not bring it up during your interview.
