[epilepsy] Re: using the bathroom or shower

Hi Scott,

Allot of us can relate to your situation. One thing we all know is the hardness of a shower stall is really hard!!! If you can trust them not simply opening the door. Why not leave it unlocked? And, if they either hear a loud knock or don't hear you for to long a time, let them know they can knock on the door and simply say "Scott, are you OK". Then if you don't respond, you can work it out with them what do do when that accurs. Take care Scott, keep a smile on your face!
