Is there a connection between autism and epilepsy? I have long suspected that there is. When Logan and Abby were diagnosed with autism, we looked to our family for evidence of autism. Other than the daughter of one of my cousins, there is no other cases of diagnosed autism. However, there is plenty of evidence of epilepsy including myself. I have another cousin who has epilepsy, who I strongly believe has Asperger’s Syndrome. I see some Asperger’s traits in myself as well. Is this just my idle suspicions? There is now some research to suggest that there may be a link between autism and epilepsy.
