Supporting Rare Epilepsy VIP Siblings

Your Family and Rare Epilepsy

All rare epilepsy families face challenges—it’s a reality of living with a rare seizure disorder. You know better than anyone that caring for a child with a rare epilepsy requires considerable energy, time, and flexibility. And that has impact on every member of the family—including your VIP sibling. As helpful and involved as they may be with their brother or sister, VIP siblings have needs and concerns of their own. Sometimes, they feel alone.
