[QUOTE="buddy, post: 504528, member: 12886"] For now, I would explain to him simply how brains work... we all have something called nerves in our brains that make us think, talk, move, feel things and where our happy and sad and other feelings are thought about. For all of us sometimes what makes the nerves work can get a little goofed up. Lots of times it does not make a difference. right now we know there MIGHT be something that is causing a little problem but we dont know yet. If there IS something then we will learn more about it. Most people who have times when the nerves have problems can take medicine to try to help. There are many famous people who have this kind of thing. Your friends won't even know unless you tell them and no one can catch it. Dont make any promises about anything because of course you dont know what it is, but odds are in your favor that he is going to do fine. When you do know, and if they say it is seizures there are children's sites that can help explain but at this point you dont even know that this is what it is. There is a level of extra electricity that may not be classified as a seizure. may indicate there was a brain injury that happened at birth or later, or a current issue etc... so while mommy and daddy will worry a little until you know, of course difficult child doesn't need to know all the possibilities yet. May be a medication related thing (stims and other medications can lower the seizure threshold). Maybe let him know as far as you know now he is not "sick". No one will even know if he does not tell them. You just want to check everything out to help him be able to learn and feel his best. There are millions and millions of people who have these kinds of issues. If needed for future: Neuroscience for Kids site: [url=http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/epi.html]Neuroscience for Kids - Epilepsy[/url] Q does know some things and his neuro. asks him each and every time if he has any worries or questions. He has asked her to put back his broken brain parts etc. He tells her every little pain. Even if not in her field because she listens and relieves his anxiety. I hope you find a doctor like that.
