How do I explain brief, unnoticed seizures to friends, teachers, and family?
It is important to explain the seizures to your family and friends, so they will understand the situation and be able to support your child. It is more complicated dealing with your child’s friends, as you will have to do what your child is comfortable with. At school, you can set up a meeting with your child’s teacher and explain that your child has a kind of epilepsy that is not easy to see, but that may interfere with learning. Hopefully, once this information is provided, people will respond to your child with love and support.
