I had a seizure in front of my 4 year old nephew not too long ago and he went running to his mom and said," uncle jon drooled on me and didn't say he was sorry!!" He was quite distraught lol. But I'm glad he wasn't too freaked out about it, he still says I'm his best buddy. I just try to keep our relationship the same and spend quality time with him when I am felling well. I just try to make the make the best of what I have, my situation could be a lot worse

Depends on what part of your brain is impacted by seizures, I have temporal lobe epilepsy therefore my amygdala is highly active and have nightmares

I have dream states were u feel your dreams are so real u believe them and then when u find out it's not real u feel collapsing and I also have these dream blanks were u are awake u can hear everything around u but u are completely paralyzed in yourself it's awful might sound crazy but that's what I go through

Thanks Catherine I am grateful for my relationship with my nephew, it must be hard for you to have a daughter who is so afraid of it. 11 years old is kind of a tough age growing up though, those pre-teen years. I hope she comes to accept your condition soon when she has a better understanding of what epilepsy really is and how hard it is for her mother to live with it

jonnyb I'm glad you are still getting on the same my 11yr old daughter is absolutely terrified it hurts so much
