[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I am impressed! No seizures. I guess I am worried she will Google SWS and see the brain involvement cases and wonder about my dd. You have to admit, when you Google, you see the worst/scariest cases. My dd has been super fortunate. I sent the teacher an email about her port-wine stain to make it clear we are comfortable/want it to be something that is normalized. She was like--Loh, not worried about that.". Hence my confusion and worry. [/quote] Don't be impressed :) I have SWS. If it were my DD, I would mention the symptoms and not give the teacher anything to google. Most people never heard of SWS... and symptoms can vary widely. I never had seizures and attended elite private schools so people don't think I have cognitive issues unless they think all lawyers do;) My birthmark was lasered off years ago and my glaucoma is under control: I have 20/20 vision with contacts. FYI, I never considered having SWS as having special needs at least for me. If you have considered getting the port wine stain treated, I would do it sooner than later. Best wishes to the little one![/quote]
