Unexpected Seizure

Kirsty's POV:
I was snuggled up with Jack on the couch, he was still recovering after a long morning led by his epilepsy. He had two tonic clonic seizures, and they were pretty long seizures too (however not above the five minute mark) so he was pretty tired. Jack does take medication to control his seizures but I guess it was just a bad day for him. I ran my hand through his fluffy hair and kissed the crook of his neck.

"Feeling better, pumpkin?" I asked him softly, he might have a headache still. Normally it doesn't take this long for Jack to fully recover from a seizure but after having more than one in the space of a morning can make him feel pretty unwell. He gets bad headaches, feels dizzy and nauseous.

"More or less." He said miserably as he nuzzled his face into my shoulder, poor little thing.

"Aww Baby, I'm sorry." I cooed softly, he tries his best to not let his epilepsy get home down but he wasn't a happy bunny today. I looked up at the clock on the wall and read the time.

"Jack, I have to get some work done. I have a lot of emails to write and I have to finish editing a video." I told Jack with regret, he needed a lot of comfort right now but I also made a commitment to my job. I stood up and he grabbed my hand weakly.

"Kirsty, please stay!" He pleaded softly as he pushed his lips out into an adorable pout.

"I wish I could Munchkin, honestly all I want to do is snuggle with you tight now but I have a lot to get done today. The sooner I finish the sooner we can get back to snuggling, okay?" I said.

"Okay." Jack said a bit sadly, I knew he was upset and not feeling well and I just wished that I could make the pain go away. I'll give all that I can give but work was definitely a limiting factor. I heard the soft pitter patter of dog paws and the little ding of Vogue's charm on her collar as she wiggled into the room. I bent down and picked her up, quickly nuzzling my face into her fur before laying her down gently on Jack's chest.

"Jack, I got you a Baby." I cooed as he wrapped his arms around her, softly massaging her back.

"Aww thanks, Squish." He said a little more happier, I smiled at them both. They were just to adorable for me to handle.

"Do you need anything before I go, can I get you some food or something?" I asked.

"No, I'm fine. Still feel pretty yucky." Jack said.

"Alright then, come and get me if you feel worse or need anything at all Bubs." I said before planting another light kiss to his forehead before going up to the bedroom and getting out my laptop. It was time to get some work done.

Jack's POV:
I won't deny that I miss the days where I didn't have to worry about having an epileptic fit in the middle of the day, I was diagnosed when I was seven and even then all I had to worry about was whether or not I would fall out of a tree or how many cookies I could eat until I make myself sick. From that point onwards I was and still am in constant fear that epilepsy will be the death of me. I've hurt myself on many occasions from falling before a seizure and cutting myself a lot on sharp objects after I fall. Seizures are pretty scary sometimes, you have no control over your body but you are aware of everything going on and having a public seizure and knowing that the people around you are panicking makes you panic too.

Normally I have up to two seizures a day, I can't remember the last time I went over that number and I had already had two seizures this morning so I had made it. At least I didn't have to worry as much later in the day, but I wasn't in the mood to do much anyway. I had the worst headache and felt pretty queasy and tired, I'm sort of used to these symptoms but they don't get anymore pleasant. I just wanted to be held and cuddled, Kirsty had been doing exactly that but she had to work, I understood that but I still wanted to be close with her. But, I got to snuggle up with Vogue on the sofa, feeling her fluffy fur brush up against my skin was a very comforting touch.

"Mmmm you're so cute, Bub." I cooed as I fluffed up her back, rustled her ears up a bit. I got her curled up on my stomach before reaching for the television remote, I didn't want to sit in silence, I put on a running episode of Four In A Bed from the start of the week's competition so I had hours of fun ahead.

Vogue took a little nap whilst I was watching telly, I was able to watch it in peace however she woke up not long ago full of energy, jumping up at me from the sofa to try and lick my face.

"Calm down you silly little sausage, you!" I said reaching down to pet her head, she sat down and gave me a little puppy whimper as she turned her head to the side. I knew what she wanted.

"Voguey, do you want to go for a walk?" I asked her, she barked sweetly before jumping up at me again. I guess now I have to take her on a walk now, I didn't mind all that much though as I felt better now, a bit tired still but better. I stood up from the sofa slowly to make sure I didn't become too lightheaded as I made my way other to the dresser to get Vogue's lease and ball thrower out the drawer. As I did so, I didn't exactly know what was going on with me but I suddenly didn't feel so well anymore. My head felt super fuzzy and my body felt really weak, why was I even up? I felt my muscles grow more and more limp before I felt myself fall to the ground.

Kirsty's POV:

I had actually managed to get a lot of work done, all the emails were written and delivered and my video was almost ready to upload, just needed to add the finishing touches. However something wasn't right, I couldn't tell what it was but something was definitely wrong. I could hear Vogue barking, not her regular sweet bark to let you know she wants a walkie, it was much louder and stronger. I opened the bedroom door when I felt the sound bounce off the walls, I followed it down the stairs and made my way to the living room.

"Voguey, what's wrong?" I called before opening the door. JACK! Jack was on the ground, his body violently shaking and twitching, he seemed to also be choking! I quickly knelt down next to him and turned him onto his side and into the recovery position, patting his back to help him cough up whatever was clogging his throat.

"Jackie, I'm right here Munchkin." I spoke to him as calmly as I could so he wouldn't worry, trying to make him feel more comfortable. I was still patting him on the back, he still seemed to have his throat clogged with something, Jack eventually gagged and threw up on the ground next to him.

"Aww Sweetheart, you're going to be okay. You're doing really well." I said softly, I felt so bad for Jack having to go through this. After a couple more minutes, Jack stopped seizing and lay on the ground as he tried to orient himself and catch his breath. He groaned and moved slowly.

"Kirsty." He said weakly.

"I'm right here Jack, you just had another seizure and you threw up. I guess you feel yucky again, huh?" I said as I gently rubbed his arm, he whimpered sadly as a tear rolled down his cheek.

"Hey, hey. No need to cry, Baby. You're alright now." I tried to reassure him.

"I-I'm s-sorry." He stuttered.

"Jack, you don't need to apologise. This isn't your fault, it was just an accident and I don't mind cleaning up, but we should really get you into bed. Feel like you can get up?" I asked him, he nodded and I helped him to his feet. I gently held his waist and guided him up to bed, I laid him down on the mattress and covered him up with blankets so he was all cosy.

"I'll be back in a second, Jack. Let me just clean up downstairs." I said before going back to the living room, I mopped up the vomit and sprayed some cleaning products on the floor. As I put the stuff away, Vogue was hot on my ankles.

"You're my little hero pup." I cooed as I nuzzled my face into her fur, I quickly grabbed a biscuit from the jar and fed it to her as a treat. If it weren't for her I might have not got to Jack in time and he could have choked. I made my way back to the bedroom, Jack had his arms outstretched as he made grabby hands for me to join him in bed. I got under the covers and snuggled up to him, I gently rubbed his tummy as he still felt a bit sickie. Jack hummed quietly before yawning.

"Go to sleep Jackie, you're exhausted." I told him, he had three pretty long seizure today so I would be surprised if he wasn't tired.

"Only if you stay with me." Jack said opening one eye.

"I promise, I'll stay right here." I whispered before kissing his forehead gently, he settled down finally and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
