our very close family friends little baby has just been diagnosed. Noticed she wasn't focussing her eyes well at 3 months, and had a series of tests which showed she was having seizures. Lets hope she gains her sight, we all hope so. She is around 6 months now, and a very unhappy baby due to the medication. It's heart breaking to watch.
How is she going now Yael?

I agree about the possibly of growing out of childhood epilepsy, although it seems each and every case is different, so I suppose that's why its not very well understood? My BIL (DH's brother) had it when he was young, but not as an adult, so he 'grew out of it'. My SIL has it too, and was diagnosed as an adult. She has been fit free for 13 years with the right combination of medications.
