What They Don’t Tell You

Charlotte Figi was three months old when she had her first epileptic seizure. The episode appeared to come out of nowhere, as Charlotte's early infancy, as well as her fraternal twin's first few months, had been smooth sailing up until that point. As her parents, Matt and Paige, stood by, alarmed and concerned, Charlotte underwent a battery of medical tests, including bloodwork, MRIs, spinal taps and more. All her results were normal. And yet, a week later, Charlotte experienced her second, more intense seizure. Fast forward two years and toddler Charlotte's life had been taken over by daily seizures, stalled cognitive development, emotional changes and fruitless medical tests. Just before her third birthday, the Figis finally got some insight into what could be at the root of Charlotte's problems: doctors at Children's Hospital in Colorado diagnosed her with a condition called Dravet syndrome (also known as myoclonic epilepsy). The incurable, severe form of epilepsy is part of a group of diseases called SCN1A-related seizure disorders and while it typically develops in the first year of life, it causes longer, more intense seizures as time goes on.
