A companion to Going to out-patients, this text is aimed at people with learning difficulties, their carers and medical professionals in hospital settings. It covers planned and emergency admissions, various treatments and other hospital procedures.

This is a story about what can happen when a person has epilepsy. People do not need to be able to read in order to understand the story. In the book we follow one man's daily life - on the bus, at work, and out with his friends. We see him having a seizure, going to he doctor, having a brain scan, an EEG, a blood test, and taking daily medication. There are also examples of activities which people with epilepsy need to be careful about, such as drinking alcohol and swimming alone. The book shows that it is possible to enjoy an active and independent life with epilepsy.
