Subject: [cerebralpalsy] What does a seizure look like?

Hi Everyone.

I had a quick question.

What exactly does a seizure look like? My 1 yo son does not have a history of seizures but as he was sleeping the other night, all of a sudden, he raised his hands and outstretched his legs and they quivered for about 10 seconds.

Since he is on a monitor, we saw that his heart rate and O2 saturation did not change. He may have changed color some but was soon back to normal.

Anyone have an opinion?

Thanks!

Colin
