hi i've just this week discovered my son has gelastic (and sometimes dacrystic seizures). he is 6 years old and he has had them since he was about 1 yr old, only when woken abruptly or when running a fever, so just 4 to 10 times a year. we are in a rural area of Australia and i haven't even spoken to my GP yet as we homeschool and i never get a chance to be separate from my kids! GP is an hour away, hospital 2 hrs, proper facilities are a full day's drive away. he doesn't seem to remember the seizures except sometimes as he comes out of it he asks why he was laughing, so i haven't told him anything yet. has also spoken this week and a few times in the past of hearing voices speaking very fast and shouting (in the days around him having the seizures), which worries him.
