attacks some.

Our son has Lennox Gastaut Syndrome which is a rare eiplepsy syndrome

I started having seizures over six years ago, at the age of 23. I was
diagnosed with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy, but I'm now not sure whether I have

My neurologists are very surprised when I tell them what I do during the

.I have a 5 year old daughter named Avery.  She has seizures and a problem

Discovery Project site. I did this because my two sons have seizure disorder

I hope everyone has a great holiday season.  We're celebrating tonight.
It will be so nice to have all the family together again, which is

all my bookmarks I had before. :-o  I can look for those later.
Does anyone have a 'clean' way to subscribe via Windows XP/2 and not

surgery.
