@jakedduck1 Hi Jake - My first seizure was in Oct of 1970 2 years after a motorcycle accident. I have been extremely well controlled with medication. I have three adult children, four grandkids and thankfully, nobody has any signs. Like yourself, I've wondered how I developed this out of the blue. Was it the accident or genetics. Will never know for sure. Stay well. Ed

No, she does not, so far. The other granddaughter developed absence seizures about two years ago.
