I met up with a South Wales field worker for Epilepsy Wales a while back and after a lovely long chat I am now one of their volunteers! I can't wait to help them out in any way possible. This charity is entirely people focused in offering support to those who need it. For example, visiting schools to provide vital information to the fellow classmates and teachers of children who have been diagnosed with the condition in order for them to carry on life as much usual. They are about providing a face to face aid to people who experience Epilepsy with Field workers and support groups amongst plenty of other things!
I hope that more of the same will come my way and I can keep on gaining experience and learn.
I am your same age and was recently diagnosed with epilepsy as well. Thank you for keeping this blog, I have been reading through it and it is comforting to read about soneone who has had similar experiences! You inspired me to blog about my journey as well, in hopes that it will help someone else someday. Good luck finding the right medications.
