Very interesting. Remember Phantom Lake pool and a bunch of tanned, chlorine bleached blonde kids by the end of summer? Surprisingly, they were only getting Vitamin D between 11am and 3pm since it is so far North Latitude. Fall, Winter, Spring? Zero UVB for Vitamin D development. What can people in the Northern States do to boost their Vitamin D for kids with Epilepsy? "Normal" summers would have them running around in shorts at a beach boosting their little supplies.

She walked at three years -- and quite well, actually. That was despite the drugs, so who the hell knows? I have often fantasized about taking away all the drugs and did just that many years ago. For nearly two years she was on only a tiny amount of one drug. She wasn't seizure free but she was "better." Puberty was a nightmare, though, and we were forced to try new ones.
