Working around a serious long term condition, Epilepsy
by Doreen Jones
Let me start by telling you a bit about myself, I suffer from Epilepsy and have done so since my early 20s; I soon learned to live with my condition and made up my mind that I was not going to
let it dictate my life. I am a mum to 4 wonderful children. My daughter is under investigation for a heart condition, one of my sons has behaviour problems, and my youngest has learning
difficulties. You can imagine, working full-time, I have a very busy life. I am a devoted Christian and my faith keeps me going and smiling through.
After a year and half of being at EY, I soon became run down and became ill with very bad flu. I did not say how ill I felt, as the unit I was working in was short staffed, so I soldered on missing
doctors appointments to meet deadlines and as a result my health took a back seat. Things soon took its toll and I ended up collapsing at work and was whisked off to hospital. As soon as I had
the slight bit of strength I was back to work.
My health took a turn for the worse and after a hospital appointment, I was admitted to ITU in a critical state. I was encouraged to return to work slowly using the help of Occupational Health. By now Flexible working had come into place, which was a god send for me. I was able to work my
many appointments around my work with no impact to the business.
I joined my colleague on a project, working together with the Disability Working Group trying to gain an understanding of the many disabilities that individuals live with and how they impact on their day to day working lives. Unfortunately I recently started to have seizures. I was mortified, but knew it was my body telling me I was doing too much and that I needed to slow down. This time I decided to listen to my body and went straight to my director. He together with HR, my manager and the support of my team soon put things into place allowing me to manage my
condition around my work. I finally feel I have a successful career and work life balance.
