Life With Epilepsy After a Life-Changing Seizure-Related Accident | Angharad & Jo

Life With Epilepsy After a Life-Changing Seizure-Related Accident In this episode of The Care Podcast, Angharad and her mum, Jo, talk openly about what life has been like living with severe epilepsy — and how one seizure led to a serious accident that changed everything. Angharad developed epilepsy as a teenager. Over time, frequent and unpredictable seizures affected her memory, confidence, and independence. In her early twenties, a seizure caused a serious accident, leading to long-term physical injuries and a lengthy period of rehabilitation. In this conversation, Angharad and Jo share what everyday life has been like since, and what support has helped them feel safer and less alone.
