Mum Highlights Awareness Of Infantile Epilepsy

ID: 3333885

A mum has shared a video of her newborn son having seizures after doctors dismissed his symptoms as 'tiredness.'

In the video, the small flicker of Benji Martin’s eyes as he rolls them back and subtly jolts, show the beginning of Infantile Spasms, a form of epileptic seizures.

But Benji's mum, Lisa, 29, claims she was dismissed by doctors who believed Benji's symptoms were due to fatigue.

Lisa refused to give up and after videoing her son, as his seizures became more aggressive, Benji was finally diagnosed.
