Cameron: Learning from Surfing with Epilepsy

Welcome to the first The Articles episode!

Is surfing with epilepsy dangerous? What happens if you have a seizure in the water? This is something we hear about in Cameron's story. 

CW: Cameron goes into detail on the consequences of having a seizure in water whilst he's surfing. So please bear in mind that some of the content and descriptions might be upsetting. 

Frankie and I discuss the story from 9:30mins.

-Fran and Frankie catch up and discuss the article

-The article resonates with and is very important to Frankie due to her background surfing with epilepsy and similar experiences of dealing with seizures in the water

-Fran and Frankie discuss the slightly traumatic nature of the article and how Cameron acknowledges any mistakes he made leading up to the incident

-Frankie comments that she would have liked more detail on how Cameron mitigates the risk and impact of this reoccurring

-Fran discusses the importance of handling this article delicately due to its intensity.
