In Epilepsy: The Ultimate Teen Guide, Kathlyn Gay dispels the myths, misconceptions, and misunderstandings about epilepsy and people who have the disorder. The second edition of this book provides up-to-date, positive, factual medical information and advice for young people and their families about how to live a normal life with epilepsy. Topics covered in this book include symptoms of epilepsy, signs and factors that precipitate seizures, treatment methods, medications, and management strategies. Real-life examples from teens who have epilepsy help readers understand how they can participate in normal activities. These teens also offer advice on how to tell friends, dates, teachers, or employers about the condition. Epilepsy: The Ultimate Teen Guide, Second Edition concludes with extensive lists of publications, websites, and organizations to help those with a diagnosis prepare for a hopeful future.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Pearl City Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 616.853 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library YA -- Nonfiction 616.853 Ga Checked In Add Copy to MyList
