Nice to meet you!!
 It is great to have you come and be with us. You will fine a great number of dear friends to listen when you are in need of ears. Please, just let us know how we can help you out. You will find out we are supportive and relaxing place.
Sad to hear what your son and you have been going through. I do have epilepsy, but I am under control now. There a great number of different kind of seizures. I was having petit-pal and I did have a few grand mal. During having one a person is aware that you are there but able to talk. Usually I would take a short nap and wake thinking I had been asleep a good long time but it was a brief moment of time.
You should see an Epileptologist (Dr. specializing in epilepsy) at an Epilepsy Center which are usually at University or large hospitals. Your need to cut out the carbs and starch foods because they will trigger seizures. Start keeping track of your seizures by writing them down on a calendar, by doing this the Dr. may see a pattern in your seizures. Get yourself on vitamin B12 500 mcg. once a day. Also avoid very bright light, like at a theater, the flashing can bring on a seizure. Just close you eyes and turn your head at that time.
Please keep us up to date on your condition. Again welcome, looking forward to seeing you around. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
