Sharmaji,
ReplyDeleteI must congratulate you for highlighting the subject of Epilepsy. I have come across a good number of people who were very energetic, intelligent but epileptic. I had to also protect from falling out of running train, an epileptic young man who had a bout of attack standing on the foot board of a Churchgate bound Mumbai local.
Care has to be taken to train patients to estimate the bouts and take care to save physical harm.
