Arlo
Arlo experienced his first tonic-clonic seizure aged 2 months; he was 3 years old when finally diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome.
Receiving a diagnosis of Dravet Syndrome can be a frightening experience. Its important to remember you are not alone - other families are going through similar experiences. We have gathered together a number of written stories and videos from our Dravet Syndrome UK community. Find these through clicking on the filters, try searching for specific topics e.g. "guidance and advice", or simply browse the stories by clicking on the name. Always remember that, even though their symptoms and experiences may be similar, every child or adult living with Dravet Syndrome is different and can present differently.
