    When someone has a seizure, the biggest risk is that they will hurt themselves by either falling or hitting something. The best thing to do is call 911 for medical assistance, then:

    If you can safely lower the person to the floor, do so. Position them on their side in case they vomit. NEVER EVER attempt to put anything in a seizing person's mouth! After a seizure, the person may be very sleepy or confused. Stay with them until help arrives.

    Same thing you do if they have a seizure when they're not eating. haha.

    You get them on the floor on their back, you push everything away so that they don't hit anything. And you call 911.
