Life with epilepsy can be hard. It can be unpredictable.

But it doesn’t mean life stops.

Like every person impacted by epilepsy, Bianca is courageous and resilient. In October 2009, when Bianca was just 9 years old, she was officially diagnosed with focal epilepsy. Over the years, she has experienced focal aware, focal impaired awareness, and tonic-clonic seizures.

“Epilepsy has, at times, left me feeling hopeless, especially as I’ve always done my best to look after my health: eating well, exercising, sleeping properly. Yet seizures still happen.

“When I finished school, I dreamt of studying medicine or working with people with epilepsy, but often it feels like I’m the one who needs doctors and nurses.

“What’s helped me is focusing on what I can do. Sport has always been my outlet and my way of feeling ‘normal.’ Even when epilepsy limited me in some areas, sport gave me confidence and purpose.

As hard as this is, I believe epilepsy has shaped my resilience and grit in a way nothing else could. One door closes, another opens.”

You can read Bianca’s story along with the latest news from the Epilepsy Foundation in the latest issue of InTouch.
