3. lordy, i'm so very sorry.

it's so frustrating that great science is out there, but your son wasnt in the right place at the right time.

my youngest had a skull fracture as a little one, but we didnt know. seemed like a normal childhood goose egg. nothing odd.
15 years later it turned out to be behind seizures that were mistaken for psyche symptoms. on top of autoimmune diseases, she was a wreck a good chunk of her life.
dx'd w ptsd, but didnt rly have trauma to cause that level. but it felt like it to her,
and shrinks accepted it. but turns out the ppl she thought were following her were hallucination seizures. lots of other weird stuff, too.

dont even get my going on brain health v mental health.
