Epilepsy is rare.
Epilepsy is contagious.
You should put an object in the mouth of a person having a seizure to keep them from swallowing their tongue. The person should be placed on his side so the tongue falls away and to the side. Epilepsy is a psychological condition. Seizures are the result of an excessive and disorderly discharge of electrical energy in the brain. You have to be born with epilepsy.
