Another seizure yesterday. It had been over a month since the last one, unless he had one while we were away from the house. Slightly different behavior this time. He was on the couch, which was good because it made it less likely that he would hurt himself. Not so good because he wasn't able to pace in circles afterward. Instead he seemed to be watching something go around him in circles - his head went back and forth like someone watching a tennis match.

During the seizure I tried something that my spouse did the previous time, which was to hum a low, steady pitch. Both times this seemed to help Mishka calm down and come out of the seizure faster. I offer up this information in the hope it may be useful to someone.

I have some new pics of Mishka, which I will post anon.
