> My daughter has twice and that was enough for me to realize that cpr and eveything had to be current with anyone that watches her or has anything to do with her adult wise. I dont leave mydaughter very many places with out me close by but, the fact that you can go several months to years without a single seizure and it can come back at anytime is scary enough for us to not take things into my own hands and go changing them around without her doctors approval (I've been told to do that too). My daughter has gone 15 weeks before no seizures and then they come back with vingence ugh I dread it. But, neither she or I let it run our lives we run it!
