My brother has epilepsy. He's been seizure-free for years, but had several in his teens. I can tell you two things: even after a petit mal seizure, he was quite dazed for a while. I never saw him right after a grand mal seizure; I was off to college by then. I can easily imagine him being dazed enough to step onto the tracks even after the seizure was over, so your care was doubly valuable. And second, even at his worst, when he had a few in a year there was never a time when the sort of help you gave would have been routine and unappreciated. Of course, some people have them much more often, but even if that were the case, this was a particularly dangerous location and as you saw, not everyone is able to give the care you did. I can't imagine that his only thought was 'Oh, no, not again.' This time, you *were* the grace.
