Seeking a second medical opinion on childhood-onset epilepsy; a 20-minute call or written review would help.

Byaruhanga was diagnosed with childhood-onset epilepsy in August. The local team has recommended a long course of medication. 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 Byaruhanga'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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

        thinking of you and your family, Wangari. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Southampton donated after I showed her your page. Blessings

        • Best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Rockford.

          • Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Thủ Đức.

            • Wishing Byaruhanga a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected

              • it takes guts to ask. Well done. After 8 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Hawassa.

                • You're not alone, Wangari. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Take care.
