Alfie Hardie Testimony - Epileptic Seizures – Part 3

Best of all was how they looked at Alfie when they got there at first. When Emma and Fraser tried to get Alfie medical help they would ask about seizures and try to cure that, and just that. When they got to The Family Hope Center they sat down with Alfie and asked about every part of him: his seizures, sight, hearing, and over all behavior. They then based their program and treatment off of the whole of Alfie instead of just his seizures.

Early on at The Family Hope Center, Emma and Fraser were given something that the medical community couldn’t provide and that was hope. They were comforted by the center because they were given a direction and structure. They were given a certain amount of confidence and felt there was a future when previously they didn’t think there was one.

Alfie Hardie Testimony - Epileptic Seizures – Part 2

Alfie was having 10 – 12 seizures a day with his parents always having to be around him to make sure that he was not hurt. He would seize day and night, so he had 24 hour supervision. He would get exhausted from all the seizing that happened throughout the day so he slept a lot. His sleep patterns were not right; he would sleep frequently during the day and be awake a lot at night. Alfie was very closed off and difficult to communicate with and would shut out the world; he was hard to spend time with.

They went to a Family Hope Center seminar in Oxford. They were skeptical about it, but after hearing what was said they were very impressed. They decided to give it a try.
In the two years that he had been at The Family Hope Center they’d seen great amounts of progress. Alfie was no longer having seizures. They can now leave him for short amounts of time with out worrying that he’s going to hurt himself. His sleep pattern had balanced out; he is sleeping more at night instead of the day.

Alfie Hardie Testimony - Epileptic Seizures – Part 1

Another client who traveled overseas to come to The Family Hope Center, was Alfie Hardie with his parents Emma and Fraser Hardie of England. Alfie was growing up normally until he was about two years old. He started having mild seizures that just got worse. He was diagnosed with Epilepsy.

The medical field tried all the kinds of medicine for seizures and none of them worked, some of them made him worse. They were told there was no hope for his future and that he wouldn’t progress he would only regress (something they’d already seen him do from two years old to three).
