Behind every NightWatch is a story worth telling

Our NightWatch stories come from people who have been affected by epilepsy. This illness is accompanied by fears, insecurity and the search for help to cope with daily life and to feel safe. In many cases, NightWatch is introduced as a daily sleep companion, in addition to good medical care.

Share your NightWatch Story

We at NightWatch have noticed that there is still far too little talk about epilepsy and how to cope with everyday life. We would like to change this. We encourage you to tell us your story because behind every NightWatch there are people. When you tell your story, you share the knowledge you have gained over time and help others better understand daily life with epilepsy, share concerns and protect lives.
