Hello,
My fiancé has epilepsy due to being hit in the head with a baseball bat when he was younger. He didn’t start having seizures till about 5-6 years ago(He’s 27 now). He only has had the seizures in his sleep and until the other day they have been controlled by medication, the last one he had was at the time he was diagnosed. Three days ago he had one in his sleep and I witnessed it. The doctor thinks it was brought on by a lack of sleep, and a cold, and he also hadn’t taken his meds yet that day. The problem is I feel so incredibly traumatized by it I don’t know what to do with myself. I was able to remain fairly calm while it was happening but now I’m absolutely terrified of him having another one. I haven’t been able to sleep at all and I’m just letting this get to me way more than I should. I just need some advice because I know I can’t live life being nervous like this on a daily basis. I just feel so helpless and it just makes me so sad that he has to live with this condition that’s so unpredictable.
