Re: [epilepsy] Advice for my son.

Melloney.

Welcome to our group. Are there jobs available in your area?

Personally, I have always told my employer but there some who
disagree.

I've had EP for 47 years. I have just retired from being a home
health aid for 25 years.

I had my first szs when I was carrying my 2nd and 3rd daughters
30 years ago. And I didn't work for about 19 1/2 years while I
was married.
