: Have yoiu ever heard of DIastat?

Yes, It is something that can be given rectally if a seizure lasts too long. When our son had his
big seizure it took the ambulance 9 minutes to get to our house(which was good for how far out
in the country we live). We now have a Diastat kit at home with us that we can use if our son has
another long seizure, which hopefully we will never have to use of course. If you are looking for
other information about it please let us know.
