Mounir Nasraoui, the media-savvy father of Lamine Yamal (F.C. Barcelona), revealed in an Instagram live broadcast the disease he suffers from.
Sometimes I walk down the street and I have been robbed many times. Because of my illness, people take advantage of me
“You must respect. If you don’t know me, don’t talk about me. I have epilepsy, I have to take five pills a day. Let’s see if I give you a pill like mine, let’s see how you are. I ask for respect because no one has disrespected you. Sometimes, I go down the street and I have been robbed many times. Because of my illness, people take advantage of me,” Lamine Yamal’s father replied to one of his more than 1.5 million followers on Instagram.

Mounir Nasraoui also denied rumors that he appears in his videos under the influence of illegal substances: “I respect if you don’t know me. Lamine Yamal is out there on the field fighting for his family, for his father, for his mother, for his brother, for his sister, for his grandmother. But for you to come to me saying ‘this one is on drugs’… I’m not going to tell you what you’re going to do. I’m not on drugs, I’m a father who has been suffering for many years.”
“What you must do is respect. He who is disrespectful will be disrespected as well. I don’t go around insulting anyone, I make jokes with myself,” he said.
What is epilepsy and how does it occur?
Cuidate Plus reports that epilepsy is a neurological disorder caused by an increase in the electrical activity of neurons in a certain area of the brain.
The affected person may suffer a series of seizures or repetitive, uncontrolled body movements. This is called a seizure or epileptic fit.
To consider someone epileptic, the seizures must be repeated with some frequency (recurrent seizures).
Epilepsy originates frombrief and sudden changes in brain function; for this reason, it is a neurological condition.
Code Crisis: how to act in the event of an epileptic seizure
Alicia Cruz Acal reports in Cuidate Plus on the ‘Crisis Code’, which aims to provide a quick and effective response to urgent epileptic seizures.
The SADE points out what to do in the event of an epileptic seizure:
Stay calm, because once the crisis has started, we will not be able to stop it.
Remove dangerous objects from the safety area.
Protect the person from harm: put something soft under their head, loosen any tight clothing that may make breathing difficult, and remove glasses or anything else that may cause injury during the seizure.
Carefully place the person on their side, in the safe position, so that any liquid in the mouth can come out without causing danger.
Watch the duration of the seizure with a watch: if it lasts more than five minutes, call 112.
