Seizures start again March 2008

After about a year with no seizures, Murphy has started having seizures again, about 2 weeks apart. Each seizure has been about 2 minutes long, although one was closer to 3 minutes. It has become standard procedure in our family to call out "seizure", which gets everybody in gear. One person stays with Murphy, everyone else brings a towel as quickly as possible. His seizures have evolved some. They now include more violent biting, anal gland expression, and urination. We use towels to protect his head from banging on the floor as well as to absorb the mess. Sometimes, there is no mess. He frequently bites his own tongue, and D got bit on the arm once while trying to protect his tongue. We don't do that anymore. Nearly every seizure has occured in the kitchen. We suspect he has also had at least one seizure outside when the rest of us weren't at home.
