Seizure Problems Solved with Epibell...
I am Amanda, mum to a son who has cerebral palsy. He developed tonic clonic seizures during the night, which were extremely unpredictable and always prolonged. They always resulted in him needing emergency medicine and often hospitalisation.
I was at my wit's end, worried sick about SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Dead in Epilepsy) and exhausted from lack of sleep. Day and night, I was listening for any sound or movement from my son, scared as a seizure could happen at any moment.
I wondered how I could ease our struggle.
Initially, I started using cat bells which wasn't ideal since these hadn't been tested for this purposes, nor were they particularly safe due to sharp edges and very small parts that could work themselves loose. They did however help to alert me during the night, so I was finally able to relax and get some much needed sleep.
From that experience, I set to work designing epibell, a bracelet or anklet, available in 3 sizes and 2 colourways, each fitted with 5 safety-tested bells. While as a parent or guardian, you'd need to make sure to stay within hearing distance of the patient, this simple device works wonderfully well.
I am truly excited at bringing the epibell to market for other families in a similar situation.

The Epibell helps alert the parent or carer when an individual is undergoing a tonic clonic seizure during the night.
The bells shake with the individual during the seizure and will ring. This can be heard in an adjacent room.
We recommend you use it in conjunction with other alert aids. Not for use during bathing or under water.
It is practical, comfortable and very helpful in alerting my family when i was having a seizure. The product gave both me and my family with piece of mind without the expense of all the other alarms out there.

Comfortable and practical. So much easier to attach to a child. Love the fact you don't need wifi or electric to use and was very efficient in alarming us when our son had a seizure. Will give lots of parents peace of mind.

The epibell is amazing. Cannot believe I have never heard of them. I cared for my brother for 24 years with generalised hard to treat epilepsy and these would have been amazing for him.
My son is 6 years old and the epibell was amazing, he took straight to it and was excited to wear the bells so mummy could hear him if he has a seizure in the night and run and save him. I only have a camera monitor on him currently as I'm saving for the night epilepsy watch which are super expensive. I was very emotional and happy my son had something to wear over night to alert me if he's having a seizure. I slept better last night knowing I would get woken by the bells instead of checking him 6-7 times a night. I am so grateful thank you so much. I will recommend these to other families I know with children with epilepsy. I've already told some friends and family members about them and they are amazed. Excellent invention, if your electric goes the bells are a back up and are easy to hear through my vtech monitor. The dinosaur design was great too he loved counting them xx
