SUDEP Book

I am working on a SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy) book for my "Layperson's Guide to Epilepsy" book series. I feel it might be one of the most important in the series.

Because...

...it seems like I read about another death from epilepsy every day, including the young actor Cameron Boyce (from Disney) last year that hit many people hard, including me and my son.

Did your doctor mention death by seizure was a possibility? How much info did you get? Did you lose a friend or family member? At what age should a child with seizures be told about SUDEP?

Please share your story for my book.

If you belong to a Facebook or other epilepsy support group where you can share this post, please do so. 

Please contact me via Instagram @VikkiLawrence1 or leave a comment here, or email to vikkibooks @ yahoo.com. Subject line: SUDEP story. Pictures of your loved one are welcome.

Maybe together, we can save lives.

Thank you.

Seizure Logbook

When I published my first epilepsy book ( EPILEPSY: One Mother's Perspective at https://www.amazon.com/dp/1885615221 ), I included forms to use to track seizures and other related info. As I was creating a second edition for that book, it came to me that those forms should be separated from my personal account.

So... As of December 16, this seizure logbook is available at https://www.amazon.com/dp/1885615604 .

Seizure Information for Schools and Teachers

Although I had already published one edition of my schools and teachers book, I kept getting more information...some of it quite encouraging!! Did you know that many states in the USA are now working to adopt laws for schools regarding seizure training? How wonderful! If only that had been done before my son's school "made him" leave.

But now...I unveil for you, as of December 15 2019, Edition 2 of a book I believe ALL U.S. schools, teachers, and parents of school-age epileptics should have:

The Layperson's Guide to Epilepsy Series

I am a member of several epilepsy groups in Facebook. It really helps to connect with others in (basically) the same boat. I have learned so much, and cried when a life is extinguished because of a seizure. Recently, it was suggested that I expand the scope of my books even further, so the is what I came up with for this book series: Vol 1: Epilepsy – One Mother’s Perspective Vol 2: What is Epilepsy? Vol 3: So You Have Seizures. What Now? Vol 4: Seizures and SUDEP Vol 5: Seizure Information for Family and Friends Vol 6: Seizure Information for Schools and Teachers Vol 7: Seizure Information for Bosses and Businesses Vol 8: Seizure Logbook: Track Seizures, Medications, Side Effects, Appointments and More Vol 9: Five-Year Seizure Diary (many different covers) Here is a link that I hope will take you to the books that are available this far. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Vikki+Lawrence&i=stripbooks&ref=mw_dp_a_s
