I came to live at the Meath in 2001 after my partner started to find it more and more difficult dealing with my seizures and the baggage that came with me, also my fits were not under control. I remember the evening I arrived at the Meath, looking up at the drive at the big white house, it all seemed so weird and unreal but I soon found the place isn’t as bad at is seemed, most the staff and residents are very friendly. I do have a group of special friends here and my key-worker is really cool! Not only because she’s Metallica’s No.1 fan!

When the ARTHOUSE opened in 2006 I soon found I could start to channel my anger from the big chip on my shoulder about having epilepsy from an early age. I enjoy doing epilepsy awareness work best in the ARTHOUSE. I hope people look at my awareness work and it makes them stop and think.
