Need some help.

I'm 30 at risk with late onset. I have a 3 yr old son who in just the past 4
weeks went from completely normal to having occiptal siezures with major
behavioral disturbances. Both my husband and I had epilepsy so that certainly
could be what this is but I'm FRANTIC that my son has JHD. He's seeing a ped
neurologist on Monday.

Does JHD just come out of Nowhere or does it gradually happen? He's been totally
normal up until recently and I pray it's epilepsy which hopefully can get him
back to his normal lovely self.
