Brady had a second seizure at 8 pm on June 5th. This one lasted 90 seconds. This seizure seemed more severe than the previous one at 12:14 am. His face was contorted and the convulsions seemed to be worse. There was excessive drooling and this time he lost bladder control. Afterwards he was ravenous and somewhat uncoordinated. He was unsettled and wanted to pace. By 10 pm, he was resting well and comfortably. Once the convulsions stopped I inserted a valium suppository and gave him 3 droppers of Rescue Remedy. After he was on his feet and fully aware of his surroundings, I gave him a small amount of vanilla ice cream.
Usually once he has a seizure after a break from them, another one will follow within a 24 hour period. This time it was approximately 20 hours between seizures. Hopefully, the cycle has been broken and there will be no further seizure activity.
Thank you dear God for watching over him and keeping him safe during the seizure and for a good recovery. We pray that we can have another good seizure free streak.
