Families & Epilepsy
Initial reactions
In this Epilepsy in Childhood video, participants discuss their initial reactions to the news that their child has epilepsy. Common emotional responses include, shock, denial, and even relief, as the family comes to terms with what it now means to live with the affects of epilepsy.
In these 'Speaking from Experience' clips, parents and children discuss how their families manage epilepsy, its impact on lifestyle and schooling and the reactions of other people.
