I was attended to at home by 3 paramedics who were absolutely fantastic and treat myself and my husband with the up most respect and dignity. I unfortunately do not remember much of the event as i had a sudden what we think seizure with no prior history of epilepsy. The only factor was that i had had 1 gin and lemonade! either that was a magical gin or something wasn't right!! either way i had several more events once in the ambulance and my husband had everything explained to him and that i may have to have support with my breathing. This i found was exceptional that he was informed throughout everything that was going on. In A&E i had another event, when i came round i had a cannula inserted i was informed by my husband that the nurse even though i was unresponsive talked to me again this was i feel absolutely brilliant and shows compassionate care. Luckily my bloods etc. were fine and after a 6 hour stay in the hospital i was deemed stable enough to recover at home with a follow up appointment with a neurologist. I did thank the sister in charge on my way out of the hospital in the early hours but it was busy, so i would be very grateful if you could send the sincere thanks to all the team and let them know what a wonderful job they are all doing.
