Therefore, diagnosis can be quite a lengthy process. One mother shared with us her experience of trying to obtain a diagnosis after noticing developmental issues in her son from 18 months old, mentioning how she had to fight through a financially draining process to be seen by a variety of specialists merely have her son\u2019s symptoms heard, filtering through a plethora of different diagnoses, unrelated to epilepsy, before medical professionals &#8211; by pure chance &#8211; found her son to possess ring chromosome 20 cells around the age of 10. Another mother we interviewed, fortunately, did not have to wait too long for her son\u2019s diagnosis, but whilst a diagnosis can offer clarity, the treatments that follow are unfortunately trial and error, with treatment primarily focusing on the reduction of symptoms rather than prevention or cure. Her son\u2019s treatment process involved numerous medications, all with limited effectiveness. Fortunately, now her son, age 6, has amazingly been seizure free for just over a year, and she prays that \u201chopefully circumstances won&#8217;t be as bad as they were last time\u201d, should her son\u2019s condition worsen once more.<br><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0c7bfd3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0c7bfd3\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c0c90b9\" data-id=\"c0c90b9\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-435abec elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"435abec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The impact of seizures<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-8d7d141 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"8d7d141\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-55d124c\" data-id=\"55d124c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e07441 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8e07441\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Unfortunately, some families never experience a decrease in symptoms despite an abundance of hospital admissions and medications. We listened as one mother shared how her son experienced up to 70 seizures a day after his diagnosis, with treatments offering no relief and often worsening her son\u2019s symptoms. At one point, her son\u2019s seizures got so severe that he had to be medically induced into a coma in order to prevent organ failure. His mother shared that\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 14px; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif;\">\u201ctheir next step was to just induce a coma, to preserve his vital organs because they told me he can&#8217;t keep having these seizures every 5 minutes and live, you know, it&#8217;s gonna kill him\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px; color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif;\">Unfortunately, coma inducement has had to be repeated several times over the last few years, including during the pandemic when his mother was unable to visit him in hospital \u2013 challenging for both parents and the hospital staff having to manage his behaviour alone as he came round. Hearing about this experience during the interview was heart-breaking, and we cannot begin to imagine the pain that this mother &#8211; just like so many other mothers who care for a child with r(20) syndrome &#8211; carry around with them every day. Now, she is a full-time carer for her son, as the severity of his seizures and the challenging behavioural issues they cause mean that he is not a viable candidate for alternative care facilities.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fe66197 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fe66197\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote><p>\u201ctheir next step was to just induce a coma, to preserve his vital organs because they told me he can&#8217;t keep having these seizures every 5 minutes and live, you know, it&#8217;s gonna kill him\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-08a9d1c\" data-id=\"08a9d1c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-97b910a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"97b910a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c69b2e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3c69b2e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"498\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-498x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9652\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-498x1024.jpg 498w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-146x300.jpg 146w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-768x1580.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-747x1536.jpg 747w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-996x2048.jpg 996w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-6x12.jpg 6w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-600x1234.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ring20researchsupport.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20181202_153808-scaled.jpg 1244w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 498px) 100vw, 498px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5fb72ab elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5fb72ab\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Challenging behaviours<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63248a5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"63248a5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When discussing these behavioural issues, which are so commonly a symptom of r(20) syndrome, his mother said that \u201cI know he doesn&#8217;t mean to hurt me, but it still doesn&#8217;t make it any less frightening\u201d.\u00a0She further touched on the despair she feels in response to these behavioural issues, saying how when he is \u201cthrowing things and breaking things and just being miserable, [she doesn\u2019t] know what&#8217;s going on in that brain of his\u201d. \u201cmy life is just horrible!

Her daughter still experiences non-convulsive seizures during the day, with the frequency of seizures significantly rising during the night, and to this day, doctors have been unable to find an effective medication to eliminate these symptoms, despite arduous attempts. Her mother believes that side effects of the multiple medications have contributed to her daughter now having to use a wheelchair and live in a residential care home at the age of 24. As her support needs can no longer be met at home, Ring Chromosome 20 Syndrome has also caused a substantial cognitive decline which has impacted on her daughter\u2019s ability to interpret information and produce speech at the rate of her peers. Her daughter is not an isolated case, regrettably cognitive decline is another common devastating side effect of the all-consuming condition (Gahr et al., 2011).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1afd47b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1afd47b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The wider burden of r(20) syndrome on the family<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-c69e2b1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c69e2b1\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-e8a201d\" data-id=\"e8a201d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0355552 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0355552\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Understandably, as there is no set treatment path to entirely eliminate symptoms, the emotional and financial strain associated with caring for someone with r(20) syndrome can be tremendous.
