to all the parents who have Children with Epilepsy My Son was diagnosed with Epilepsy when he was 13 he had a grand mal seizure & when he was 15 he had a grand mal Seizure in the night & died we were later told he had died of SUDEP (sudden unexplained death of an Epileptic Patient ) we were then told we could have got a special mat that goes on the bed under the sheet which will alarm if the person stops breathing I dont want to scare anyone but I had epilepsy from the age of 5 & my Mother didnt know you could die My 15yr old daughter has just been diagnosed with Epilepsy & we will be getting her a mat for her bed because we never want to go through that again I implore you to discuss SUDEP with your Doctor & I pray you never have to go through what we went through if you have any Questions please ask I will try & answer them Thanks Debbie
