29. Let's say he is--the unfortunate fact of the matter is "so what?" It's not like
he's driving the school bus or flying that 747...he's deliberating, writing opinions, sitting DOWN while he works. So, if he has the odd seizure, everything stops, they make sure he doesn't bite his tongue off, when he's done, they give him a cool cloth to wipe off his face, he feels exhausted but that's about that, and life goes on.

And he could probably be medicated to stop them entirely. This isn't a show stopper, if it's just epilepsy. He gets a driver, he takes some drugs. Feh...!

If it's a rapidly growing and inoperable BRAIN tumor, though...well, that might be something else entirely.
