STING'S DAUGHTER INSPIRED BY EPILEPSY MEDICATION
STING's teenage daughter COCO SUMNER was inspired to write a catchy new song for her band when she was prescribed epilepsy medicine after fracturing her skull in April (09).
Coco Sumner performing at Trekstock - a series of fundraisers at The Boogaloo in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust at Highgate. London, England - 06.11.08
The 18 year old collapsed at a Los Angeles restaurant and was admitted to hospital, where doctors initially thought she had suffered an epileptic fit.
This was later ruled out by a series of tests, but for a brief period she was put on epilepsy medication, which had a strange effect on the rock offspring.
But she credits the experience with helping her to pen her track In Spirit Golden for her band I Blame Coco.
She tells Britain's Love magazine: "They made me feel really weird so I wrote this really weird song that turned out to be quite catchy."
The singer adds that at the time of her accident she didn't realise how serious her injury was. She says, "I had no idea what happened. When I was in the ambulance I said, 'I don't need hospital just get me home'."
Following the accident Coco spent four days in intensive care, with Sting and his wife Trudie Styler at her bedside.
