One of the many things that as me going, since having epilepsy, is I am always wanting to be with others of handy-caps to listen and assist them with what I can. In life I look at a great number of people on earth that I feel I cannot live with their's and I can live with mine. I to was 10 when I developed epilepsy so I have learned to live with it. At lease I can see, talk, hear and many other things.

May you all have a wonderful week-end. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Hi Phyllis,

You might want to try and stop your auras by taking a cold washcloth and putting it on your face and the back of your neck 3 times a day. I did this in a medical study a couple of yrs. ago and they found out that a person body temp. is higher before a sz. and the heat triggers sz.
Another thing you can try is to tighten your muscles the moment you feel an aura sz. start and make your hands into tight fists. My neuro I had back in the 1970's taught me to do this and it stopped many aura sz. from going into a full blown absence or complex partial sz. Here's wishing You well and May God Bless You!
