HI Colleen! im a father of two daughters. last october 2021 i discovered that my two dautghers were sick and suffer from epilepsy. the eldest is 12 years old and the youngest is 8 years old. what helped us discover the illnessess is when the youngest start chouting while in sleep. the oldest is suffering while she is too young but we did not notice because she does not chouting or having seizure like her sister. she keeps silent but absent minded for seconds..

@chahali22, welcome. Thank goodness that your daughter's shouting in her sleep helped lead to her diagnosis of epilepsy and that her diagnosis made you aware of the condition to recognize it in your younger daughter too.

What type of epilepsy have they been diagnosed with? Have either of them been offered treatments?
