[QUOTE="livabet1, post: 1905754, member: 433981"] Hi, I am Type 1 of 60 years duration, doing well with no complications. However my younger brother is also Type 1 for 23 years and also epileptic is non compliant, has numerous problems with Hypos/Hypers and seizures. He feels if anyone tries to help with advice and interventions they are telling him how to live his life and won't take professional advice. Last week he had a hypo and collapsed in the supermarket ending up in A&E.followed by a tonic clonic seizure at his flat probably because he failed to take the epilepsy drugs and has broken a rib. This is certainly one of many episodes he has had. He is a wonderful artist and a really nice guy. The family have tried to help and have offered every support but to no avail. I am despairing hence this entry on the Forum. Is there a centre where he could go to meet with other people who have lost the will to live? Where people can be in a caring non-confrontational enviroment with first class medical specialists and psychologists to try and get my brother and other folks back on tract to look after themselves and start to enjoy their lives. Thank you Mark [/QUOTE]
