hi... thank you so much for sharing this video. I'm studying at nursing school and i needed some information for an exam and this is just so perfect to imagine an seizure with an aura, and how to react when something like this happens to one of my patients. again, thank you very much!

having seizures is terrible. I've lived with 'them' for 42 years. I found a nice video where a young female describes her dissability as a GARRILLA that she is forced to live with and care for. It is so real.

Came across your videos while researching seizures. You're a really inspiring man =) You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. With love from Ireland. Sarah x

hope u get better bro

I came across your videos this evening after researching seizures. I am a caregiver to intellectually disabled persons, and this weekend I saw my first "real life" seizure..and I know it's an experience I will never forget. This client's seizures look a lot like yours do, especially with the gasping towards the end. He, however, seemed to be completely unresponsive and almost comatose for at least 30 minutes following his when we were finally able to rouse him and get him to say a word so we knew he had come out of it.
How do YOU feel following your seizures? He seemed to be completely exhausted even the day after..his eyes continued to blink (but not violently) and he didn't talk to us at all but would answer questions with gestures.

Hey Paul! I`d just like to wish you & ur family a Happy New Year full of Joy & Happiness. May this year be a great one for you hopefully may it be a Surgery & Seizure FREE 2012!!!! Take care & God bless! Nina.

i have very few grand mals i have mainly pitit mals yesterday i ended up at the grocery store w no recollection w how i got there... i am unresponsive to treatment as well.

hi... i really want to say i just like these videos i whatch them every single day after i come home from school. u make me feel stronger and i feel like im just not normal but then i relized its not my fault and learned to love my epilepsy and i still do love it it makes me feel like im someting in the world. when i was in middle school people would make fun of me when i have them. and it hurts so bad wheni have them my muscles get tight and i cant move for a while. and i just cry but then when i get out of it im all happy. well i justwanted to tell you that i love you and your videos. please write back love Shea

An add on... the seizures I have are grand mal, tonic-clonic, seizures. I have lived with them for 20 years... there is nothing doctors can do for my situation except give me Dilantin. A quarter of my left brain is gone from the stroke/seizure I had after my birth resulting in a severe case of cerebral palsy. But as I said before you would not know I am handicapped if you saw me walking down the street.

I have epilepsy and a severe case of cerebral pasy (though you would not know it if you saw me walking down the street). After getting through school... graduating in '99... owning a Christian Bookstore.... going in and out of colleges when needed; I am now taking a 3 week course to get my CNA (certified Nursing Assistant) to go with my First Aid/CPR training. I work with a special needs camp in the summers and also a volunteer/unified partner with the Special Olympics Bowling in the Fall and Spring.
