Ok so I'm at Section 24 just 4 weeks after first starting the damn thing

I just can't think what they want here. I'm applying for DS who has epilepsy and even with the Cerbra guide I can't get my brain in gear to make any sense.

Can anyone give me any ideas about Section 24??

i used the example going to the park and why he is different from another child he age - mainly because we live next to one but dont go very often because it is so difficult and we had been that day (and i was still recovering)
Think they want something he would do but has to have extra help/supervision. I dont think that was alot of help sorry

So something like we'd like to go for swimming lessons but have had to stop due to poor concentration and risk of seizure?

I'm having my first day on my own since Christmas - DS1 with grandparents and DS2 at nursery and all I am doing is go round in circles.

fatzak i would say had to stop due to seizures. how is he? what did the pead say?

Well he hasn't had had any more absences since he went into LGI in status and on the whole much better. He has started to have his sleeping gaspy things again but we are just increasing a new med so maybe that will help!

That damn form has frazzled me. I am knackered and feel I am getting nowhere with it!

It's just plodding on through it isn't it writing the same thing again and again and wondering if I am being over the top!! It's never ending!
