About Improvement for Ellie

Ellie started seizing at the age of 9 months old. The absence seizures became much more frequent at the age of 2 when she was diagnosed with Childhood Absence Epilepsy. We were told she would probably outgrow the seizures with the onset of puberty. Unfortunately, puberty made things much, much worse. Ellie started having new seizure types including tonic clonic, focal, myoclonic, astatic, and dacrystic seizures. This is what led us to genetic testing. Your donations will lead to treatment for Ellie and other children like her that fight this awful monster day in and out. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for every donation you’ve made so far.
