Watching your child have a seizure can be scary and can lead to a lot of worries. Many parents say they feel helpless because they cannot make the seizure stop. Stay calm. Take a deep breath and remember to reframe: this is an opportunity to gather information (control what you can control).

One of the best things you can do as a parent is to watch the seizure carefully and take notes. These details about the seizure are invaluable to the doctors and will be integral to helping with the treatment.
