Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hi, was this on 'a Dr. Blaylock site'? I saw the i.d. in the address and him as a referrence but wondered if there was another way to definately identify this as from Dr. Blaylock. Haven't read it totally yet but I will, it sounds like Blaylock's other writings so far. I once suggested to grandson's Riely Children's Hosp. that he might be dx as Landau-Kleffner and they looked at me 'funny', frowned slightly and said 'oh no, no no no... think he's missing too many other signs to be classed as LK.' But, the seizures he's had that got thru' the meds cause him the same loss of functions and it's like having to start all over again to reach him. Other info I've read says seizures, in general, do this anyway. Some effects are temporary, some aren't. So, a person with seizures needn't be classed as LK to suffer these effects... IMO. TNX for the info, I will store this for passing on and referrence, that's the reason why I wanted definite i.d. of Dr. Blaylock. grandma peg > > This is interesting: > > That a persistent seizure focus discharge is pathologically damaging is > graphically shown in the case of Landeau Kleffner syndrome.
