my name is janelle and i noticed my daughter having these staring episodes, after a couple of months noticed they where getting more and more frequent, spoke to her teacher and was told that shes noticed her having them in class, it hit me so hard, confirmation its not just in my mind, shes had all the tests with the wires on her head and was confirmed she has peti mal with tendencys for grand mal, the meds are really taking there toll, my once happy energetic daughter is now tired and angry, its killing me to see her like this, im left wondering whats worse the seizures or this stranger that is now my middle daughter? any insight would be much appreciated i feel so lost.

My son started having

Submitted by Nancy45 on Sun, 2017-12-10 - 04:40
My son started having seizures he had his first seizure at 6 year within 12 hours We spent 6 days in the hospital where different doctors looking at different things couldn’t agree on why he suffered a seizure… He has had genetic tests including a muscle biopsy. I used to wonder why my son were getting so many vaccinations shots at such a young age, Still the doctors wouldn’t admit it was the vaccination shots. After his 2nd seizure I wouldn’t allow my son to be vaccinated anymore but I believe the damage is done. It was during a casual conversation with a friend that I learned about Doctor Lawson Bryan i was so glad to know him on how his herbal product work, I contacted Lawson and explain everything to him and make purchase of his product. few days later i received the herbal medicine my son used it for 3 mouths i notice improvement in less than a month my son was totally cured of seizure now he have not experience any sign of seizure. Contact doctor Lawson on this e-mail dr.lawson52@gmail.com.
