My daughter gets these silent seizures, they can be scary and they can also keep you guessing! Your on ALERT constantly checking to see if they are just thinking or if its one of these seizures. My advice is if you havent already to talk with a neurologist, ours has my daughter on medication and although with her weight has to be adjusted and monitored constantly has helped!

Make sure your school is on top of a seizure action plan because some schools dont even suggest one. You can have your neurologist fill a free form off the http://www.epilepsyfoundation.org/livingwithepi... website.

I also found out the most summer camps, day cares or any voluntary place you send your child and this is different from state to state that if your child is on seizure medication or requires emergency medication in the event of a seizure that legally they need an RN on staff to administer this, MOST places DO NOT because to have an RN on staff is expensive. Which in my humble opinion stinks and the laws need to be changed where its MANDATORY for any SSRA's, summer camps, or Day Cares ( or anyone who gets state funding for providing services to children with special needs) should be REQUIRED to have an RN because of and like an allergy, Its a time sensitive issue!

Good Luck! :) J
