Not having children due to epilepsy

Hi...I'm not much of a online chat person as I have found quite offensive responses...I was looking to start a family but im a uncontrolled epileptic so me and my husband agreed it was best to not try...I've been struggling alot lately to come to terms with it all...I feel alot of guilt as I am the issue...I'm not sure what I'd gain from this as there seems to be so little out there for people in my situation without getting incredibly hurtful comments...I'm sad to think of my future and feeling unfulfilled...just looking for any advice to move on and get rid of this huge amount of guilt and the feeling of the future being pointless
