Seizures/Epilepsy

This morning, I was happily chatting with my colleague about next week's public holiday in Selangor and how we must be careful not to make any appointments with our KL clients when another colleague shouted "HELP" behind us.

At first we thought she dropped something but when people start running over, we realise that something strange is going on. Another colleague had a seizure. Someone gave her something to bite on and nobody knew what to do as this is the first time something like this happened in the company. Thank god for our HR, who have some knowledge on how to deal with this situation. She was sent to the hospital. Actually she became conscious after about 5 - 10 mins but was still required to go in case something serious happens later. When she came back, we asked her about it and it seems she has no history of epilepsy and this is the first time it's happening. Apparently she had a head injury last week and doctors said that this might be one of the causes plus high stress. Something to do with the nerves or chemicals in the brain. From now onwards, she has to take medication because when u get it once, u will get it again.

It's just so frightening. A normal healthy person can collapse just like that. Reminds me of my friend's father who passed away earlier this year. Juz out of a sudden he felt something wrong with his body and when he reach the hospital, he is pronouce brain-dead.

Nobody can explain the causes of this kind of thing. Some say stress. Even if you are not a smoker or drinker, it doesn't mean you won't get these kind of strange sickness. It's just fated I guess.

So everyone please try to live your life stress-free (abit difficult I know) & do whatever you want NOW because you will never know.
