Epilepsy (often referred to as a seizure disorder) is a chronic neurological condition characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures.

i had a skin itch a while ago and needed to have a bath to help it. my mum came up every 5 minutes or so and asked if i was okay. also the water level was low (not that that would help to much i guess).
generally i dont do it.
i think the bathroom full stop is dangerous. :D
I even once broke my nose because sz in the shower.
You can drown in an inch of water that I know.
The water on a lake can send me into a sz if Im in small boat.
I never heard of running water though.
I take a shower 99% anyway.
I used to have baths all time to relax, unwind, relieve my tired muscles after a hard strenous day, and to de-stress. I would add relaxing bubble bath lotions and burn candles. I was so relaxed that I would often fall asleep in the bath and wake up all pruned 1 hr later. I knew of the dangers of having seizures in the bath, but being controlled at the time I felt it wouldn\'t happen to me. Thankfully it never did, but after reading about your daughter it has made me realise that this does happen to real people and that I should be more responsible..better still give up baths altogether. It\'s not worth losing your life over some relaxing bubbles.
I never knew about running water causing a seizure. It\'s been years my DH doesn\'t take baths just showers and I am right there to monitor him. . I\'m praying for you and God Bless.
If you have repressed memories, are a vic. of abuse (mental, physical, sexual), have PTSD, etc. this is a MUST try.
I have a great contact in Orlando, FL if that helps anyone.
