     I found this article very interesting. My son, Ethan, was born with a heart condition called Wolfe-Parkinson-White Syndrome but he was so sick the first 20 months, we didn't realize that he was having seizures. When he was diagnosed, they did an MRI. We were told that most children's seizures are of unknown etiology but with Ethan he had lesions on both sides of his brain and that was what was causing his seizures. He is currently on 3 anti-seizure medications but he continues to have seizures. I am going to print this article and show it to my son's nuerologist. Thanks for the article.
