It must be awful but I think it's probably more scary for whoever sees it happen, I seen a girl in my school have a fit once and it absolutely terrified me as a child x
I have suffered from epilepsy for 15 years and still to this day when I have seizures it still terrifies me. It is so good that they are making people aware.
Loads of people put this show down but actually there are so many talented actors, I'm a young actor & have to say all of the characters in this show all have done great!
I have epilepsey and have tonic clonic seizures and absences can get more triggered by stress the amount of times I have fallen to the ground being on my own and walking down the street I have t never known what it looks like but now I do. My friends told me when they see it they can’t explain it but I shake and other people have said my lips turn blue. I’m glad they are making people more aware of epilepsey
It’s a really scary thing for the person having the fit and also for the people helping him/her. One of my friends had a fit today in school ( that’s why I looked it up ) because she got locked in a toilet and panicked. My other friend ran and got me and as I was making my way to her there were two other girls helping her through the Corridor. She was crying so I went to give her a hug and she fainted onto the wall. I feel really bad because I freaked out and walked away. ( there were crowds and teacher with her at this point so I didn’t leave her alone ) . I was in shock for the whole next lesson and I was worrying.
Wow, a person could die from falling and hitting their head while having a fit. ;*( Must be incredibly hard for actors to MAKE THEMSELVES fall over, too. ;*(
I've had epilepsy since I was 3 years old and still suffering now they are up and down and they been number of time where I've had fit in my flat while I've been on my own but epilepsy isn't joke it bad it horrible it long term illness and wish I could change it but I can they been loads of time that I've tryed to see if it will go or I'll grow out of it but I'll never grow out of it I'll have it for the rest of my life and ive informed hospital I can't cope with it and they need to stop it and told Dr's two I wake up and they blood all over don't on know how and I've broken my noise and I've don't know how much they think it when I've fell onto the floor but mine really bad and sometime I feel like I can't live a normal life but when I don't have fit it I'm fine when I have one had stuff coming out of my mouth and everything it not nice for people to see or my kids to see that with meds it slow them down doesn't stop them though this yeah I've had over 300 bad fit I've hurt myself the lot it not nice for mam to see it as my mam get worried about me my mam give me the best normal life she could do and it hard to deal with myself I do ring for help when I know I'm going to have one so they get to me in time
A girl in my college was having on and off seizures all lunchtime for 30 minutes until paramedics came. She must have them a lot because her friends didnt do anything and just sat there which means they were used to it. They sat there until they must have realised it was going on for too long and they started panicking
Nancy has moved to casulty she is a paramedic in it and is amazingly caring for the other paramedic (who's a man) and they have kissed before but the paramedic is having suicidal thoughts because of the woman paramedic who he worked with before Nancy came into it who was called Sam he tried saving her but he couldn't and he was in a massive ambulance crash so she's awesome in it
I suffered from fits once. I was only about 8 or 9. I had two at school and about 3 or 4 at home. I mean the one time i had one i had to go to hospital and everything. They can be very dangerous
Kate McDevitt I felt for her too. I was diagnosed when I was 17 and nearly 24. I still have small seizures a few times a year and get really physically tired :( Which is a bad thing when you're a teacher ...
I had loads of fits through the weeks too but on meds for them now after been seen by a bent neurologist saying I suffer from anxiety I was like bullshit mate do the fucking research!!!!! I felt for Nancy 😱😱😱 I'd of been hugging her when she came round if I was there
+savannah childress I know right Neuro don't know what their fuckin on with lol, which hospital do u go to if u don't mind for my records so I know not too choose it
+Chloe Stanbridge If you can put something soft underneath their head and move stuff from around them you should do it but youre not supposed to hold them incase they hurt their neck from the movements of the seizure they cant control :)
lena hood it was actually Shirley struggling to hold her head. When someone has a seizure they seize up and go completely stiff so its like holding a shaking dead weight
Kalem O donnell hardly. There are many people who suffer from epilepsy and many people who get hurt from it and you are sitting saying that this is funny. Some people need to change how they speak about stuff like this. Next time try be more considerate of those who suffer from this type of stuff
Hey I'm Stacey morgan. Hey baby girl. Nancy you're so cute and a good actress. The reasons why you have seizures because you're trying to get awareness on Epilepsy, am I correct? I have seizures also, mines are Grand Mal and Absence seizures. That means I have Epilepsy and so does my 4 older sisters and 3 older brothers. Epilepsy runs in are family. Are momma and daddy have Epilepsy just like the rest of us. Altogether, I have 11 older sisters and 7 older brothers. I'm the baby in are family and the youngest. When you're the in the family, you get to do whatever you want or like. I as a baby in are family, I like to pull pranks, get revenges, and boss them around. I'm 16 years old, my birthday is November 24, I forgot what my year is. Oh, baby girl, I know your seizures are real but can you tell me how'd you become an actress with seizures? I'm not trying to insult you or anything, I'm seriously not joking. I'm serious when it comes to situations like this. Nancy baby, you shouldn't be embarrass just because you have seizures and I shouldn't either which I'm not. I had seizures a couples of times at school. This One was Grand Mal seizures while the another were Absence seizures. I had to go into the ambulance plenty of times because of my seizures. They had to rush me to the hospital. I didn't know where I was and I didn't know I was in it. Honey bunny, you're lucky that you get the paramedics to come to your Seizure Rescue Scene because yours and mines are different from each others. I have 2 types of seizures and I just explained to that you. Byyyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, baby girl. I love you to the moon and back also unconditionally. Have a really great week, weekend, Holidays, and much more! I hope you reply back to me once you're finished reading my comment.
I can't imagine how terrifying it must be to suffer from epilepsy, god bless those who suffer from it :-(
I differ from epilepsy it's frightening X
It must be awful but I think it's probably more scary for whoever sees it happen, I seen a girl in my school have a fit once and it absolutely terrified me as a child x
Aww I'm sorry to hear this Kate. I can't imagine how hard it must be, god bless you!! X
Thank u & yep it's frightening 2 experience & witnesses X
moldalxx thank u sweetheart Xx
I liked the way Mick and Shirley helped Nancy when she had her epilepsy fit. They got worried about her
Jessica Morris well I doubt they’d just stand by and watch. I mean I’d freeze the spot but then force myself to snap out of it and help
Nancy is such a good actor
+Angel Gibbons really I didn't no that. my mastake

My little sister has complex epilepsy maddy does a good job of acting as it is an exceptionally hard thing to imitate
She suffers from seizures in real life
Wow! She is a great actor
Epilepsy is no joke. I lost one of my closest friends last year due to complications of it.
Terrycat88 Sorry for your loss. You're right, it should be taken extremely seriously.

The feeling right before a seizure is the most terrifying feeling...I hate it
I've had epilepsy since I was 3 years old and still suffering now they are up and down and they been number of time where I've had fit in my flat while I've been on my own but epilepsy isn't joke it bad it horrible it long term illness and wish I could change it but I can they been loads of time that I've tryed to see if it will go or I'll grow out of it but I'll never grow out of it I'll have it for the rest of my life and ive informed hospital I can't cope with it and they need to stop it and told Dr's two I wake up and they blood all over don't on know how and I've broken my noise and I've don't know how much they think it when I've fell onto the floor but mine really bad and sometime I feel like I can't live a normal life but when I don't have fit it I'm fine when I have one had stuff coming out of my mouth and everything it not nice for people to see or my kids to see that with meds it slow them down doesn't stop them though this yeah I've had over 300 bad fit I've hurt myself the lot it not nice for mam to see it as my mam get worried about me my mam give me the best normal life she could do and it hard to deal with myself I do ring for help when I know I'm going to have one so they get to me in time
I could have sworn I heard the word " fuck " ?

I suffer from epilepsy
Nancy has moved to casulty she is a paramedic in it and is amazingly caring for the other paramedic (who's a man) and they have kissed before but the paramedic is having suicidal thoughts because of the woman paramedic who he worked with before Nancy came into it who was called Sam he tried saving her but he couldn't and he was in a massive ambulance crash so she's awesome in it
Lady Dye, just casually licking Nancy’s shoes. As you do. 🐶
I suffered from fits once. I was only about 8 or 9. I had two at school and about 3 or 4 at home. I mean the one time i had one i had to go to hospital and everything. They can be very dangerous
I know she had a fit
She's had another one
I used to have epilepsy and I don’t know how I am still alive but as I had that I had fits and I wanted to know what one looks like so yeh
Nancy is fit
You got the same name as my girlfriend Charlette lol
I felt for Nancy I also have epilepsy and had a bad seizure earlier 2 had 2 bad ones last week Xx
Kate McDevitt That's rough going; would you say the way the show portrays Nancy's fits are as accurate as they can be?
I think she did a brilliant job can't b easy I'm epileptic so it was very painful 2 watch Xx
Kate McDevitt I felt for her too. I was diagnosed when I was 17 and nearly 24. I still have small seizures a few times a year and get really physically tired :( Which is a bad thing when you're a teacher ...
Robbie Heslop I'm always here if u wanna talk lots of hugs X
Kate McDevitt thank you :) you too! x
Hi

My sister has epilepsy I feel for Nancy its the worse thing ever
Is Nancy is have fit
ooh😊
amy clarke ?
I thought that u to hold their head to stop them hitting there head and hurting it.
+Chloe Stanbridge If you can put something soft underneath their head and move stuff from around them you should do it but youre not supposed to hold them incase they hurt their neck from the movements of the seizure they cant control :)
Is Nancy coming back ?
1:39 mic says fucck
LivingLife AsLenaX no it was Nancy making the noises
lena hood it was actually Shirley struggling to hold her head. When someone has a seizure they seize up and go completely stiff so its like holding a shaking dead weight
You're not meant to hold someone down whilst their having a seizure eastenders need to do their research
Poor Nancy
Cool
There's nothing cool about having a seizure I have epilepsy and had a fit earlier Xx
Me too Katie McDevitt
It's Kate LOL & hope you're ok
Chants T Brown X
DiamondMC [HD] troll
DiamondMC [HD] bastard

My sister has it too xx
Aww hope she's ok Ashleigh Dean

Even tho it’s not a lot it’s still disliked
1:31 when the beat drops hard
Ross Gipps Not funny.
Bitchface Hopkins lol
Ross Gipps you’re a failure to comedy
Michael Jackson was playing in background
+clairelouise i know what to as my friend has fits
Fix
Is this acting or are the cast and crew working round the actor's fits. Very good actor if so
They're actors
ofcourse but what i ment was has the actor got epilepsy?
+Keziah Yates no lmao they're acting
+Keziah Yates No, I don't think Maddy Hill has epilepsy.
Billie Jean is playing in the back round
squidly bop and?
Should not hold someone who is fitting
You have to stop them from hitting their head
That’s just cruel init
That's so funny lol☠️
Kalem O donnell hardly. There are many people who suffer from epilepsy and many people who get hurt from it and you are sitting saying that this is funny. Some people need to change how they speak about stuff like this. Next time try be more considerate of those who suffer from this type of stuff
You should b ashamed of yourself my best friend died from epilepsy u sad fat troll
The only funny thing here is your profile picture lmao
Kalem O donnell epilepsy can get to you one day and you’ll regret that comment
What happened to Nancy she looked rlly weird shaking xD
Kathryn Burns-Ray she epillpsy
A wut ?
U don't touch a person who's having a fit Shirley did the wrong thing by holding Nancy's head come on EastEnders research it better
U gave 2 stop them from knocking their head I have epilepsy and hit my head yesterday just after having Na seizure X
No Shirley was doing the right thing as if she had left her she could seriously injury her head!!
Of course you do,
You don’t try and stop the person fitting you just try to stop them hurting themselves.
Shirley did the right thing she wasn't restricting Nancy from having a seizure just protecting her from causing any harm to her head
