Today Bobbie and I are talking about seizures.

This morning she heard that a friend had just had a seizure.

She remembered that a few months ago she witnessed a seizure. "It was around one or two in the afternoon- turned around to look at a workmate, and she began convulsing. The aids rushed to assist her, and kept her from falling out of her chair. I noticed she just wasn't herself before the seizure"

John said that "people have seizures all the time- but me lucky - not me."

Lori said her roommate has seizures she said "I get nervous when it happens but I don't encounter them that often."

- Most people are familiar with seizures caused by epilepsy. A Grand Mal seizure —sometimes known as the tonic-colonic seizure occurs when charges of abnormal electrical activity in the brain-cause violent rapid muscle contractions, and the loss of consciousness.

Bobbie worked on a drawing what she thinks the of the brain looks like during a seizure.
