As a concerned dad of daughters, perhaps you should reconsider your career choice. Part of the first responder creed is to be the solution, and not part of the problem.
I hope you can get your seizures under control, and pray you have a wonderful and fulfilling life. With your good looks, you could probably get an MRS degree pretty quick.
And, BTW, if I'm having a heart attack, I'd rather your partner that doesn't have seizures help me.

Ya’ll miised the point big time.
She wasn’t refused a job because she couldn’t do it.
She wasn’t fired for having a siezure on the job.
She was told to drop a class (which she most likely paid for) because she was a DISTRACTION to the other students
She is not endangering anyone in the class. Nor is she endangering anyone else because she is only a student.
Let’s look at how great these other students are going to perform on the job if they a traumatised so badly by a person having a seizure.
As an EMT and a nurse I can safely state that there are many positions available for someone that has an EMT certification. Simply because someone has an EMT certification doesn’t mean that she has to work on an ambulance.
I earned my EMT back when I was in college. The follow summer I worked at a camp up in the mountains as the craft staff member. My application was moved to the top because I had my EMT. Everything I did at that camp (as far as medical care) was basic first aid, but to my employer I was a resource for the staff and director when a camper was sick or injured.
I don’t care what job you are applying for, be it in a factory, office or outdoors, when an employer has the choice between two individuals and one has their EMT, they are the one that gets the job.
