This is actually a video of a bad VHS tape (the camera connection was bad.) This is graphic video of Jenelle on the Video EEG at UCLA being tested to determine a focal point for her seizures (They never found a focal point and diagnosed her with Lennox Gastaut Syndrome.) We were waking her at 3:30 AM to feed her as she was to go without food for her MRI/PET scan later that day. This seizure started as a grand mal, and then went into a complex partial. The seizure lasted 10 minutes, and her lips turned blue (you will see us give her blow by oxygen.) The screaming that you hear is involuntary - Jenelle was not screaming in pain. This clip is just under 3 minutes into the seizure and was taken in April 2004.
