The human brain is very important and complicated. But for people with epilepsy,
it can have a dangerous problem. One moment you are laughing, working, or going
about your day, and the next moment your brain suddenly stops working normally.
There is no warning, and you lose control because of a sudden electrical
disturbance. This is what a seizure feels like — sudden, harsh, and unpredictable.
Epilepsy affects millions of people of all ages. Medicines are the main treatment,
but they do not work for everyone, and they can also cause strong side effects.
