This is a case report of a 62-year-old male with lifelong temporal lobe epilepsy presented with an interesting matrix of clinical, cognitive, psychiatric, neuroinaging and psychosocial features. This was one of the cases presented for review and discussion at the ILAE Neuropsychology Training Course as part of a case series discussion and is highlighted to illustrate the potential for neuropsychological resilience in a patient with epilepsy.
