Each seizure whatever type was scarier and scarier and scary it horrible damage to my body that if I didn’t have surgery probably would have taken my life. |
The surgery cured you?

My husband is allowed to drive since he doesn’t lose consciousness. (Although I’m not very comfortable when it happens during driving.)

I drive too. I was told to stop driving while taking the tests but after I was able to drive again.
Sienna is just trying to figure this out and gathering as much info as she could don’t worry.

There are a ton of variables in epilepsy. If one doesn’t lose consciousness and can continue controlling the wheel there’s no reason not to be allowed to drive. It happens while he walks as well without him losing his balance.
