Boris Seizure #2

It happened again, not more than 14 hours after the first episode.  This one did not seem as violent as the first and seemed to subside sooner, but it was still a horrifying site to see and not be able to do anything.
Boris was in the other room and I heard a strange noise.  I rushed in to see him standing, but very stiff and his body contorted.  He had just urinated on the floor and his mouth was foaming.  I laid him down on his side and spoke softly to him to try to comfort him.  Once again, he seemed to stop breathing for a brief period, then his body relaxed and he started breathing again.  The worst was over in less than a minute.  After that, he was looking around, but very disoriented for another 5 minutes.  After that, he was up and walking around, and seemed to be OK, but tired.  

I am recording these episodes to keep a running history.
