Helloooo and welcome to Episode The Eighth where we find RACHEL in hospital and awake, talking to Charlie about what happened. Do you think Rachel should have told her pals about the condition? Do you think Charlie's reaction was fair or selfish?
All these questions! We fathom from Rachel what she remembers of her first seizures in school and otherwise, and how she feels about it all, and also get Charlie's perspective - coming from a place of genuine love and concern for her pal.
Matthew Walker talks eruditely and more about the finer aspects of elements of the condition, and how folks can help themselves, as well as recognise signs and symptoms fo the condition. And we truly appreciate you listening - and hope that this has been a useful episode and has some resonance for you!
All links we could find of a useful nature are on the shownotes which are here on the Quirky Voices website.
Thanks to Professor Matthew Walker for his awesome help! And! His book - understanding epilepsy can be found everywhere and here!
Next week, we speak to the lovely Hattie Hodgson-Crome from Epilepsy Action about their new Epilepsy Podcast, which has just started - catch that here!

ANYONE F'COFFEE? - Episode the Seventh - EPILEPSY - FIT
Hallo, welcome, and Thank you SO MUCH for joining us for the first of 3 eps on EPILEPSY focusing on the wonderous Lucy Shirley, who - if you've been listening along, plays the often hilarious Rachel in our Audio Fiction, and has in her real life been dealing with epilepsy since childhood.
I have to point out at this juncture BLACK LIVES MATTER & TRANS LIVES MATTER to us at Quirky Voices VERY MUCH...I work and play with folks from all of these wonderous communities and, well, I have really been overwhelmed by the sadness and tragedy concerning Civil and Trans rights, my workload and world events and that of things closer to home as well as my own health of late, and so we had an unexpected mini break - to hopefully also leave room for other voices as well as find our own - but we're ever so gently & calmly back & woah have we got some eps for you!...I would LOVE to hear from anyone in the Trans and or Black communities who want to share their experiences of these conditions with us too >[email protected]
Thanks also to our medical professional Matthew Walker whose list of job titles is longer than my body(!) and works in many fields of public facing research and development in epilepsy. I appreciate very very much Matthew and Lucy's input into these next few episodes, and I'm sure you will too!
We mention both EPILEPSY ACTION AND EPILEPSY SOCIETY a lot! Please follow those links to research more for yourself! And all other links are on our show notes found on the Quirky Voices website here
