This podcast story, Whose seizure is it anyway?  has been on Emma's mind for some time... well... actually since she was eleven and had her first seizure. Emma, along with co-presenters Jeannette and Oscar, all have lived experience with seizures and they take us on an audio journey that explores Epilepsy and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) through poetry, history, humour and insight. Their stories make you wonder where the real disorder lies.
