Scared….

I have had seizures since I was 3 and the doctors have never been able to pinpoint what causes them. I am now 21 with 2 children, when I was pregnant with my second child my seizures became worse. After having her the siezures stopped completely. Now 2 years later I have started having seizures again and am very scared of what could happen. I am a single mom and with my last seizure my son (oldest child) found me unconscious with no way of getting any type of help.
