My daughter Sarah had grand mal seizures. Her lips turned blue. I was positioning my hands to start CPR when she gasped for air.
Western medicine called it idiopathic epilepsy — unknown cause — and offered her a lifetime of medication. I refused to accept unknown as an answer.
After years of research I identified the root mechanism: impaired conversion of glutamate (excitatory) to GABA (inhibitory) due to B vitamin deficiency, MTHFR gene variants, and candida overgrowth from antibiotic use that was stealing nutrients from her gut before they could reach her brain. Sarah worked with a holistic physician, addressed the root causes alongside her prescribed medication, and slowly tapered off Keppra under supervision. She has been seizure-free and off all anti-epileptic medication for over two years.
Then my dachshund Koe started having the same pattern of seizures — grand mals starting mid-2024, approximately one hour duration, monthly, on a predictable schedule. I applied the same framework to canine neurology. Starting April 2026, his seizures became five-minute mild events. He remained fully conscious throughout.
This booklet is the complete account of both journeys — told honestly, including what I know and what I cannot prove.
