Confused Needing info from Keppra users and epilepsy sufferers

Hi, my name is Sandy. My daughter is 4 years old now but was born at 26 weeks gestation. Since birth, she has had issues with hydrocephalis (sp?) which has caused her to undergo many surgeries. Well within the last six months, she has had two sets of two seizures. Once in March and then again on Tuesday. Most recently she suffered Tom's Paralysis on her right side. The Nuerologist has put her on 1.5ml Keppra. So far she is just not herself. She is pretty moody and sleepy. She also isnt as bubbly as usual. Also I've noticed her speech to be slow and she seems to be having to think more about what she says or does which is VERY different than before. I guess I am just wondering if these things are normal and if they eventually go away. I am worried that she will be "DOPED UP" her whole childhood. We go in to Nuero in about a week or two for a followup and just want to be well prepared with knowledge and questions. Any info would be so greatly appreciated! Thank you, Sandy
