Dehydration has always been an issue for me. I had a few seizures whilst I was on holiday. I was on a cruise with my family (me, my mum, my dad, and Emma - my older sister). It was very warm and it was difficult to stay in the shade. There was also a party on the deck so heat + dehydration + dancing = seizures!
I had multiple seizures that day, and it was only when I got home when a discovered that I had nine seizures! I came round to find my family and the paramedics putting cold flannels on my face and my arms and my legs. They were injecting me to try and stop the seizures but I kept going into other ones! I still have little marks from when they were injecting me, but it was agreed that it was because I hadn't drunk enough that day. There is so much to do on the ship, you almost get sidetracked!
I couldn't go down to dinner that night, so me and Mum had to get room service whilst Emma and Dad. I ended up having a psychosis which made me go into a rage and I nearly threw the television remote control at the screen. Luckily, Mum managed to grab my arm and take the remote off me. I think it about exhausted me so I just about got some sleep.
I woke up and looked at a glass of water, then at my arm where they had injected me at the deck party and straight away, I looked at Mum and just said:
"Are you trying to drug me?"
She only got me a glass of water!
Luckily, Emma and Dad came back and I had to go and see a doctor. After that, it was a bit of a blur. The doctor was trying to give me a tablet to help with my psychosis and I was really hesitant to take a tablet because firstly, it was quite an ominous looking tablet and I thought he was trying to kill me and secondly, he wasn't my real doctor - it's not like my usual doctor could come and treat me on holiday!
All in all, it was a rocky holiday, but I consider it as a hiccup!
