‘I was spitting out blood and they used a spoon handle to get my tongue out of my throat and then wedged the spoon to keep my mouth open,’ he said. 

Just four days, earlier Jade had embarked on a week-long detox program, following a stint of wild birthday festivities. 

The near-death experience has since given Jade a new perspective on life.

What is a tonic-clonic seizure?  

A tonic-clonic seizure causes a loss of consciousness and violent muscle contractions. 

Usually, a tonic-clonic seizure is caused by epilepsy. But sometimes this type of seizure can be triggered by other health problems. 

Very low blood sugar, a high fever, impact to the head or a stroke can cause a tonic-conic seizure.

Many people who have a tonic-clonic seizure never have another one and don’t need treatment. 

But someone who has recurrent seizures may need treatment with daily anti-seizure medicines to control and prevent future tonic-clonic seizures.

‘The most horrid and scariest thing happened to me last night in Bali. I’m so lucky to be alive’, he wrote, before thanking his friend for their support. 

‘I had my first ever seizure, fell back and slammed my head on the concrete. Wouldn’t wish it upon anybody. All I can say is this has been a massive wake up call in so many ways,’ he continued. 

‘1 – for the people that are really truly there for me i my life and care about me, and 2 – how it’s really important to trust your body and stay as healthy as possible,’ he added.
