From the Paper:

"Seizures: An Overview Seizures, be they epileptic fits or something else entirely, are generally poorly understood by the general population. This state of affairs can be very dangerous insofar as ignorance can prevent people from taking the steps they need to take to safeguard their health and well-being. With this in mind, the following paper will examine the anatomy and physiology of seizures, injuries or illnesses that may precipitate them, signs and symptoms which reveal that someone is suffering from a seizure or has a predilection for suffering seizures in the future, the medicines used for treatment (as well as other procedures) and the long-term impact of seizures upon the quality of one's life. As should become evident, seizures are terrible afflictions, but they are maladies that can be successfully dealt with through patience and understanding."
