Narrative

MYSELF AND FLT ATTENDANT #4 (BUSINESS CLASS GALLEY) WERE APCHED BY A PAX IN ROW X; TELLING US WE WERE NEEDED IN THE MAIN CABIN. THE WOMAN NEXT TO HIM WAS HAVING A SEIZURE. I WAS THE FIRST TO ARRIVE AND IT WAS APPARENT SHE WAS HAVING A SEIZURE. I GRABBED SEVERAL BLANKETS AND PADDED HER; SO SHE WOULD NOT HURT HERSELF IF THE SEIZURES GREW VIOLENT. THEY DID NOT. THE PURSER ARRIVED AND TOOK CTL OF THE SIT. I GRABBED MY SAFETY MANUAL FOR PROCS. THE PURSER WAS AWARE OF THE PAX'S MEDICAL SIT -- I WAS NOT. THE PAX NEVER FULLY REGAINED CONSCIOUSNESS (AFTER BEING GIVEN OXYGEN) AND THE CAPT ELECTED TO PUT ACFT DOWN IN SAT AND HAVE THE PAX REMOVED FOR CARE. I WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER PAX; WHO WAITED IN LINE TO CHK IN (IN FRONT OF THE WOMAN); THAT SHE WAS EXTREMELY ANXIOUS ABOUT FLYING AND THAT SHE WAS BEING ACCOMPANIED BY A NURSE TO THE ARPT. I'M NOT SURE; BUT I THINK THEY HAD COME TO ARPT DIRECTLY FROM A HOSPITAL. THE PAX THAT HAD SEIZURE GAVE IMPRESSION THAT SHE WASN'T QUITE ALL THERE. I WAS NOT AWARE OF THE PAX BEFORE SEIZURE; SO CAN'T COMMENT FIRST HAND ON HER STATE OF MIND.
