[QUOTE="Dara, post: 136889, member: 3572"] We gave Sammy his first dose this morning. I am a little relieved about it. Yesterday when he fell asleep in the car I thought to myself "wow, he is having tons of seizures right now" It was a very scary feeling to me especially because I had childhood Epilepsy and I remember all of my seizures and they scare me to no end! I took Depakote for 16 years with little issue. I think for us right now everything is so overwhelming. What are the odds to find out your husband has a degenerative muscle disease and 48 hours later find that your son has brain damage...Not a good week! At least for Sammy, there is something we can do and are doing. I just hope it works. The thing that scares me the most in this situation is that there is no way for us to know outwardly if the seizures have stopped or not. Its not like he shakes or stares off or anything like that. That is the thing that freaks me out about this! I just have to hope this medicine works! Thank you for all of your input. It helped husband feel better. A friend of his told him about her son hallucinating on depakote and other side effects so he freaked! WHo wouldnt. Your input helped ease his fears greatly as well as the tine dose Sammy gets! Thank you again! It is much appreciated!! [/QUOTE]
