Living Well with Epilepsy
LIVING WELL WITH EPILEPSY
Driving is a very important part of Australian life especially for those living in rural areas where one has to travel long distances to access services. Attaining your licence is also an important aspiration for young people.

Many people have concerns about living with epilepsy. Each person experiences epilepsy in quite different ways depending on the type, frequency and predictability of their seizures.
|
|
|
We all face risks in our daily lives. Some people with epilepsy, especially those with poorly controlled seizures, have an increased risk of injury.
|
|
|
The potential risk in everyday activities depends very much on the individual nature of your epilepsy. You may still have to adjust your lifestyle to minimise or remove the risks...
|
|
|
Skills, abilities, qualifications and experience are what employers are most interested in. Epilepsy is only relevant if you have seizures that may interfere with your ability to do your job.
|
|
|
All holidays require planning whether you intend to travel overseas, interstate or take a short break just a couple of hours from home...

Support Nyah and families just like hers by donating to our Christmas Appeal. We need to raise $181,000 to support programs like our emergency medication training.

Nyah was born with Sturge Weber syndrome, it usually presents with a port wine birthmark and neurological complications. Seizures, often unpredictable and prolonged usually begin early in life.
