For the person that's having the seizure. It's like an editor removes that time from their life. It can kill in the middle of the night, you're sleeping and you have a seizure, and you can explain it better than I can.
Ever wondered what it's like to navigate life with epilepsy or how cyberbullying impacts our daily lives? Actor Greg Grunberg, known for his roles in 'Heroes' and 'Star Wars', opens up about his family's journey with epilepsy in this compelling episode of 'Weekly Infusion'. Greg's eldest son, Jake, was diagnosed with epilepsy at just seven years old, and for the past thirteen years, the Grunberg family has faced the ups and downs of living with this condition.
Greg shares heartfelt stories about the daily challenges Jake and other epilepsy patients endure, from managing seizures to dealing with societal stigma. His advocacy work through talkaboutit.org and The Epilepsy Foundation of America is not just a mission but a personal crusade to bring awareness and support to those affected by epilepsy. But that's not all. Dr. Drew and Dr. Bruce also tackle the pressing issue of cyberbullying.
They discuss the emotional toll it takes on victims and share insights from Dr. Drew's recent experience on 'Teen Mom', where he witnessed firsthand the destructive power of online harassment. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand more about epilepsy and the hidden dangers of cyberbullying. Whether you're dealing with these issues yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find empathy, practical advice, and a sense of community in this engaging conversation.
