My Grandson has Seizures
by: Linda on Tue, Jul 29 2008

I first notice having a seizure episode when he was about 5 or 6 and he might have had them once or twice a year. i was scared to death. it was a petit mal but now since he is 17 and this year alone, he has had 7 or 8 and they are a lot worse.

i feel so helpless. i have taken him to several Neurologist and they keep changing med on him. i am so frustrated and he is also. he told my niece that he feel like they are trying to kill him and of course we know that is not true. i am looking for any information that i can get. it is very hard on the family.

i am a single grandmother who has raised him and his two older sisters for 13 years. His mother was murdered by his father so he feel sometimes that he doesn’t have anyone. i still pray nightly for a cure or a med that will subdue the seizures He need to live a normal life.
