There are many people with Epilepsy. Not just us little people. Anyone can be diagnosed at anytime of their lives. There are historical ICONS dating back to the years before Christ. Then there are the many Celebrities, like actors/Actresses , athletes, Politicians, and ect. It doesn’t matter what the career the person specializes in, they can get diagnosed with Epilepsy.

This is one of the many subjects that can be talked about ,relating to Epilepsy.

I would encourage them to never give up on answers they seek and become part of a community like this where we understand each other. I would also encourage them to try to share information with loved ones... especially those who don't understand.
