I mean I know my son became brain damaged from a vaccine but before that he was quite advanced so just curious 👀 if you knew you had a disease or whatever that you could pass on to your kids would you have them ?
It is all about where you got your epilepsy from. If it came from the genes if it was an accident or head wound, or as a result of bug bites as a recent discussion I was in her son got it from the west nile virus that he had.
I know Epilepsy is genetic but it's not a guarantee it will be. I also know there are many types of epileptic seizures but I know it can still be defeated to live a happy life. Since I know that I believe I can teach him how to do that since I did.
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member what I find odd is that my son is the only one with epilepsy within my entire 75plus relatives I have however all the others suffer from diabetes or cholesterol issues I think diabetes can be cured but brain 🧠 damage can not

I would probably still have kids. I had seizures as a kid so I would know what to expect. My mom could help with a lot of information because she dealt with me as a kid having seizures
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member Generally epilepsy even when it is genetic will be passed down but it's the next generation that is more likely to get it. Yes it can be passed on but this is less likely. Then there is always other reasons why the next generation may get it that don't turn out to be a genetic cause.
