Do you have a child who is presenting seizures, or is there a child that you know of, who is presenting seizures?  When seizures frequently recur then it is termed as Epilepsy, which is a very common neurological problem today. We can fight it better if we learn more about it. Our goal is to empower a concerned parent such as yourself, with information required to help your child grow into a self-confident young adult in the society.

The journey of a family that starts from diagnosis of seizure does not end with a proposed treatment plan. The family requires guidance and help from different pillars of the society, that can collectively facilitate the successful integration of their child as a self-confident and happy member of our community.
