For example Ian Olsen, who suffers from epilepsy since 11 years old, says about RNS System this: ''After dealing with seizures for 16 years, I feel like I have now defeated my seizures once and for all. The RNS system is helping more and more people with epilepsy – and everyone battling seizures should know about it.''<ref name="NeuroPace_stories">NeuroPace. Ian’s Story. NeuroPace, Inc.
