Hmm. Hyper focus has occurred to me as well. In fact, a friend with an ADHD child immediately said "oh that's not a seizure, that's just hyper focus - it's an ADHD thing."

I'm still waiting to hear back from the ped's office about showing her the vid and maybe getting a neurologist referral - meanwhile I want to get a referral to our children's hospital ADHD clinic, which I've heard is top notch.

And on it goes...
