Can you live alone if you get grand mal seizures?

Main Post:

My husband is a 40 year old, he gets nocturnal grand mal seizures. Thankfully, they are not frequent, he had 2 in the last 2 years since he has been on 3,500 gm of Keppra.

I am constantly worried about leaving him alone especially at night with my kid because I worry he gets a seizure if I am traveling or something.

I am not sure what’s the right thing to do. Should I be with my husband at all times, day and night, not travel or go out unless I have someone else be with him to make sure someone can call an ambulance?

From someone else with nocturnal seizures: there's actually no safer place to have a seizure than in bed.
