When a person has epilepsy, the whole family experiences it. From day to night, our daily routines bring up all types of questions like "Can my teen go away to college?" "Can my newborn take seizure medication?" In this section we'll try to answer all your questions about the various isses which arise regarding infants, children and teens.
