Speedbumps - Living Life with Epilepsy by Jonathan B. Dobson
Speedbumps by Jonathan B. Dobson is an honest and inspiring story about growing up with epilepsy. From a young age, Jonathan navigates the frustrations of daily medications, medical tests, and the well-meaning but constant concern of his parents. While trying to fit in with friends, he discovers that epilepsy often has its own plans, creating unexpected obstacles—his “speedbumps” along life’s journey.
Through Jonathan’s experiences, readers witness the challenges of living with a chronic condition, the feelings of isolation, and ultimately the journey toward self-acceptance and mastery over one’s health. This compelling book is both relatable and educational for children and their family's navigating life with epilepsy.
Inside, you’ll find:
- A personal, first-hand account of growing up with epilepsy
- Insights into the challenges of medications, medical tests, and social life
- Lessons in self-acceptance, resilience, and empowerment
