6 Week old daughter recently diagnosed...

Fri, 03/27/2015 - 13:54

Hi, my 6 week old daughter was recently diagnosed with focal seizures, she is currently on Topamax.  I am just learning about epilepsy.  We are unsure if she has any cognitive delays as of now, and we are waiting on results to determine if there is a specific cause.  Any parents of babies out there who are in a similar situation?  Or has anyone been in a similar situation that could offer words of encouragement/advice?
