When diagnosed in my mid career I did not kow what to do. Should I tell the supervisor, should I ask for regular working hours? The Epilepsy Foundation of Virginia guided me through all these questions and we trained a buddy at my work about first aid and what to say in the event of a seizure. Please help continue such support services by contributing to my goal of $ 5000.00.
