Doctors, could you help? Farhana's childhood-onset epilepsy
An orthopedic surgeon willing to review Farhana's reports could help the family decide on treatment for childhood-onset epilepsy.
Anywhere in the world410 views
Farhana was diagnosed with childhood-onset epilepsy in April. The local team has recommended watchful waiting. We understand it's an important decision, and we'd like to be sure.
We're asking if an orthopedic surgeon - anywhere in the world - would be willing to review Farhana's reports and give a short opinion (a call of 20 minutes or a written summary). We'd gladly pay for any cost to your practice that we can afford.
We have scans, lab reports and the doctor's notes ready to share securely. We understand that you can't give formal medical advice without an examination, and we're simply looking for guidance on questions to ask and options to explore.
Thanks for even thinking about it.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Good luck, Dipu. This could happen to any of us
Praying for you, Dipu. Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
You're not alone, Dipu. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Coimbatore.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Bacolod
Thinking of you and your family, Dipu. Wishing Farhana a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best
Sending strength, Dipu. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Get well soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best.
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Wishing you the best, Dipu. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Breda this morning. Take care.
Sending strength. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My husband and I read this together. All the best
Take care, Dipu. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Rome.
Keep going, Dipu. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. God bless
Hope it all works out. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Hang in there, Dipu. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
