Hi Tiger Lilly,
I'm sorry to hear that you are having a hard time with your mom. I had a hard time with both of my parents while in my teens when they didn't want to accept me because of my epilepsy and they sent me to a bording school out of state from where I lived. I wish today that I never came home because yrs. later after my surgery they messed me up after getting a divorce and being married for almost 42 yrs. this caused me to have more sz. and it lead into grand mal sz. which never happened in my life so all the surgery I had was a waste of time and money now I have more sz. than before when I had surgery.
My best advice to you is to keep active and you might want to speak to a Pastor or Clergyman this is what helped me the most. Whatever you do don't follow in your moms footsteps. I proved to both of my parents that just because I have epilepsy that doesn't change a person that much and we are all put on this earth for a reason. If you don't live with your family cut off any contact unless it's an emergency and let them come to you. This is what my neurophsy. told me to do and it took 7 months before my mom even picked up the phone and called me but she did in the long run and now things are much better.
I will be praying for you and your family. I wish you only the best of luck and May God Bless You and Your Family!
Sue
