There wasn't a need to worry about seizures, at least. That had been one of the problems ruled out early on, along with MS. It was just that, when the attacks would hit, Jono completely lost consciousness. He usually had enough warning to get somewhere safer, but a stool wasn't the best spot to 'faint' from.

This time, though, there were other things. For a moment, it would look like Jono had completely stopped breathing and, if Jamie checked, there would be no pulse. Only for a few moments, though, before they resumed, like they had never stopped in the first place.
