hmm. I recently watched a PBS documentary on seizures and epilepsy and remember seeing the parent of the epileptic child who had had an electrode placed in the brain. The parents were wearing a watch/monitor stimulation device so when his son was about to have a seizure the parent would receive a notification and would push the stimulator and that would alert the sons brain to divert the seizure. Pretty amazing but I would assume a lot of thought goes into placing one in your child all depending on the severity of the seizures.
