Hi Heidi,

I called DSAW and they told me to contact you.

is 2 years old, but cognitive newborn, and physically 5 months

He also has Autism and Epilepsy. His seizures are for the most part

controlled with keppra, and quite a large dose at that.

However when he has breakthrough seizures he looses all muscle tone and his

face literally smashes into the ground (this is while on his belly pushing

up on his forearms)

Or if he is in an exersaucer his face hit the plastic - we try to protect

using blankets and boppy pillows. His therapist wants him in a helmet

with a face guard

That is my concern. He can barely lift his head as it is, how is he going

to be able to lift it with a helmet on. Do you have any ideas or

suggestions?

Where do you get a helmet and does Beckett help with the cost?

Thank you so much
