Baby seizures. Need support.!
Fri, 08/14/2015 - 00:46Topic: Parents & Caregivers
It's so hard watching my daughter go through this! She started having seizures when she was 2 days old. She is now almost 5 months and the doctors still have no answers for me or a way to control her seizures. Medicine is just setting her back developmentally. I feel so helpless with no way to make her feel better. I breakdown crying multiple times a day. People seem sympathetic.. but they can't possibly understand. How are we supposed to cope when there's nothing you can do to help your child? Sorry just looking for some advice or people to talk to that are in similar situations.
