yes, well... as far as I can tell, I have focal seizures and I don't know when I'm having one so it could happen anytime and I don't know, but I would say its been 6 mo to a year since my last one maybe more.

It's frustrating when people focus on what you can't do rather than what you can do πŸ’•

thanks, I know, I am constantly being told I'm not going to get married or have children. Before you had your daughter were you ever told that?
