Episode Details

A three-year-old boy from Perth, Teddy Tangney, is battling severe drug-resistant epilepsy, causing nightly seizures. His family is frustrated with the public health systems lack of consistent specialist care at Perth Childrens Hospital. Diagnosed six months ago, Teddys condition remains uncontrolled, with nightly seizures lasting up to twenty minutes. His parents must administer rescue meds and call an ambulance, as emergency visits arent suitable for ongoing needs like consistent medication trials. Health officials acknowledge the familys frustration and aim for the best care closer to home, but a proper ongoing care plan is yet to be established.
