My son is 8 as well, but was diagnosed with seizure disorder when he was 3. He also has night time seizures; roughly one every hour. Is your daughter currently on medication? If you don't mind my asking, what city are you in?

We live outside of Cleveland, so she goes to an epi at the Cleveland Clinic. She is taking trileptal, its been one month but we have seen no improvement. Is your son taking meds which are effective?
