My daughter was found in the middle of the night, unconscious and seizing on her kitchen floor.

She's 28 years old, not a child. She was taken to the local hospital where they did a CT scan and informed her that she didn’t have a seizure because if she had, she would have wet her pants. Now mind you, she’s not a lady who holds her tongue, but she felt like a train and ran her down and had no fight in her.

How should this be dealt with after the fact?

Se have a family history of Epilepsy. We all know what it looks like. How can a medical professional say something like this?

I have a friend who did that a lot and it was caused by extreme stress and anxiety after something happened to her... and shes 37
@SimplyMeChantou Epilepsy runs in my husbands side of the family. More of them have it than don't, but it's never been a major issue. Just something to be dealt with. But my daughter has so many other things going on at the same time and they act like she's just seeking attention.
@nonsensiclesnail ask for second and third opinion if needed, i always say a mother knows best

We know our kids better than anyone else regardless of the age
@SimplyMeChantou
that is uncomfortably true.

Im going to admit something, and I know better... Im not really superstitious, or at least I dont think of myself as being so. In my family history, all through my mothers side, going back at least 5 generations, if I'm counting correctly which I am now seeing that I am not. I think thats all I have found and have been told about, the eldest daughter of every other generation has died, leaving her young children to be raised by the father and his new wife. It goes, dead mom, child raised without mom and then her daughter is the one that dies, leaving her children to be raised by a step mom. I am the first one in generations to not die. My mothers mother is the one that died, so it should have been me next. But, my children are grown and Im alive. And part of me, the one that that lives in "what if" is so scared my daughter will be the one. The realist in me knows better to even think this for a moment. But the 'what if' in me is shoving the realist in the closet.
