Children with neurologic impairment are a growing population of pediatric patients who require care from a large team of physicians to maintain their health. These children often have similar clinical patterns and symptoms that occur because of their neurologic impairment. Families often seek care first from their primary care home to identify and guide initial steps in management. Identifying the symptoms outlined in the 4 cases in this article will help alleviate consequences of delayed care for these patients and provide opportunities for shared decision-making with the family's goals of care for their child.
