Ins .EPll'.E.PTIC ATTACKS

There was a time when the only

treatmerit given anybody "throw- ing a fit," having an epileptic ai- ack or seizure as it is more pro- perly called. was to protect the patient from injuring himself by placing an object between his teeth or protecting him from striking his head against any hard object. The only drug given at that time was bromine. which quieted the patient to a considerable ex- tent. However. physicians today have learned that epilpetics do not need to have stacks, that these attacks or seizures can be very often kept under control or prevented alto- gether by (a) cutting down on all liquids. (b) cutting down on table salt in and on foods. ic) cutting clown on starch foods. (d) increas- ing fat foods. (e) using drugs to drive water out of the body. and (f) the use of phenobarbital or other of the barbital drugs.

In a. special article, "Control of Seizures with Drugs." written for Modern Medicine of Canada. Dr. William G. Lennox, Department of Neurology. Harvard Medical School and the children's Medical Center. Boston, states that the patient himself can learn to prevent seiz- ures to a considerable extent.

"Clinical studics have demon- strated that acidosis tends to in- hibit. or prevent the mild (petit mal) epileptic attack. when the person's will requires his body to work and his mind to think, mus- cle and brain cells increase their output of carbon dioxide and lac- tic acid." This increase toward acidity of blood or. rather. shift away from the normal alkaline

other words, an active brain can combat its own illnss."

What do we learn from the above information from this out- standing authorlty on epilepsy? "The therapeutic moral of this observation is that children should be kept climbing the educational ladder and that adults should keep the muscles and the mind at work. Activity is indeed naturals own remedy, a cheap treatment that helps control seizures and yields the by-product of successful living."

Dr. Lennox has further comfort- ing wcrds. "Another by-product of the workings of body and brain that is a slow and otherwise un- welcome process. is that of grow- ing older. Epilepsy is primarily a disorder of childhood. As a person passes out of this blissful period. the brain waves become faster and more stabilized and electrical pui- sations and seizures tend to be- come fewer. The fact that time is on the side of the epileptic is im- portant to maintain his hope and morale.

Too Much Worry Will Defeat Own Ends

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Perhaps my problem is a minor one, but it worries me a lot. We are middle-aged parents with three lovely children-iiie oldest 13. I have a wonderful husband who is very patient in every way, but my trouble is that I worry too much over the children. It's always been my place to discipline them and I'm new afraid I've made a poor job of it. I scold them too much, perhaps the because I am the nervous type. if my husband would reason with firm them a little, I don't think I would have to talk so mcuh.

End The children are often very persistent when they want something, and since we have a debt on the home I think they, too, should be willing to make the best of things. Should I try to get the things they want, or make them do the best they can with what they have? Should I ignore some of their misbehavior. asimy husband suggests, or continue the job of being sole disciplinarian? w M
