What if you’re wrong?
The meds aren’t always an insurance. she could be between meds if in case she’s had recent episodes and needing to change a perscription. This has happened to multiple people i know who are dealing with seizures as their lifestyle.
I’m sure the family had gotten the autopsy to be going the length of posting it as the official cause.
Dying from epilepsy is only rare in circumstance that a person isn’t close by. Chances of Dying from epilepsy is quite scarey in that there is a possibility on every single epileptic seizure that a person could die.
People with epilepsy have a chance of dying if they are awake and no one is around fast enough to do anything.
Almost lost a neighbour this way.
if they are asleep there is less a chance someone might come by. Because everyone else is asleep and unless someone is in bed with you they wouldn’t know to wake up and do something to help.
The experience shouldn't offend the data. The data comes from the experience. If you keep discounting occurances it will seem rare and unusual. that's perpetuating a fallacy.
A close friend of mine has a son who hadn't had seizures in a few years and they thought his seizures were being managed and that they found the right medication and treatment. Then suddenly he had a grand mal but luckily while they were out someone else was around. Took them all by surprise. he had a cardiac arrest and everything.
This does count.
It becomes less rare when you stop belittling experiences about it. It should absolutely be taken more seriously.
