Mark,

Thanks for the quick reply! After reading your response, googling absence seizures and talking with my friend it sounds like you are right. They are going to see the neurologist tomorrow. The young lady who hit her head is only 19, and I did read that absence seizures tend to lessen with age, but I'm thinking that is for natural/genetic onset and not the case if they are caused by a trauma. Either way THANK YOU SO MUCH for the quick reply, and now at least they have some more info to give the doc when they see him! Ill keep you guys updated.

Thanks,

Robert

PS Anyone else happen to have any knowledge/anecdotal information about absence seizures caused by head trauma? Thanks!
