I probably should have introduced myself before barging in and asking questions. I'm the father of adopted twin boys, 9 years old. They have lived with us basically their whole life. Their biological mom did a lot of crack while pregnant and who knows what else. As a result, the boys have several issues including mental retardation, ADHD and seizure disorder. Both boys have a VNS and are on depakote. Dylan also takes clonazepam. Dalton also takes Lyrica. We've been though the gamut in regards to medications. Typical triggers are oveheating asociated with physical activity and any amount of fever. Dylan seems to be doing pretty well - no seizures since last May. Dalton, however has had increased seizure activity in the last 6 months or so. They are full gran mal and last about 2 minutes. We have a wonderful neurologist that has been working with us since day 1.

Having said that - Hello and I look forward to hanging around
