Epilepsy Action

“ We exist to improve the lives
of everyone affected by epilepsy ”

Anna Morelle-Grey

My greatest achievement is...

Becoming a fully qualified counsellor and running my own busy private practice despite never being able to complete my A-Levels or Degree due to returns of my epilepsy.

Having epilepsy made me have to re-think my career aspirations, yet having it had given me so much: I have learnt tolerance, acceptance, understanding, patience, and most importantly the ability to truly posess empathy for other people's struggles. Even though it has brought about limitations in my life, epilepsy has become my friend in a way....it's made me who I am today and that's ok :)
