Feeling really low

My 22 year old daughter has been told just recently she has got diabetes and epilepsy she has been going through a very ruff patch with he boyfriend who she told today it was over.my problem is she can go through between 7 and 20 fits a day. I have fibro and depression and I am very scard that one day she will have a really bad fit and not we will not be able to get her back out of it we talk to her hold her hand she has been in and out of hospital so many times and been in quite a few comas I don't want to lose her she is the only one out of my 6 children that treats me and my husband with respect I would do anything for any of my children but I could not bear the thought of loading her she has a heart of gold she ends up in so much pain after a fit I just don't know what to do anymore I am really scard

Shirley, you sound thou like your a fighter. Concentrate on the good days and make them good as this helps people with endorphins etc. The bodies natural defences.

I hope  you can get teh balance right for the future and wish you and your family all the best

Hi Shirley, I am so sorry to hear about your daughter... I understand how you feel, my mother was also epileptic and had many, many fits... she had an aura sometimes beforehand which was a help.. I know that they can be very frightening to see, as there is nothing you can do... has she got a good specialist giving her care, is there no way that they can cut the amount of seizures that she is having... it also must be difficult for her to accept., and I can only just imagine as a parent ( of four children ) how sad and the heartbreak you must feel when you can't make it better..

You must look after yourself as well as supporting your daughter, I truly hope that your much loved daughter improves health wise, and that you find some peace of mind... very sincere wishes to you and your family.

Take care. DEIRDRE xx

Hi Shirley, I forgot to ask, are your daughter's sugar levels under control, ? Unfortunately my mum's were always high and caused her many health problems on top of her illnesses.. I am sure that the treatment has improved for both illnesses nowadays, I wish you well once more, warmest wishes to you, Deirdre xx

My daughters sugar seam to be always low not getting much higher then 3 for the last 4 days she has been feeling really poorly she just sleeps but then she ends up having a fit so she carny win bless her
