Children’s epilepsy hurts the sleep of the entire family

Epilepsy occurs in all age groups, but it most often occurs in childhood. Half of all people with epilepsy are diagnosed before the age of 10.

The most children’s seizures can be effectively controlled with medication, however for some, medicine is not enough to control the seizures. They and their families must live with unpredictable epileptic seizures.
