My Wife (neurologist) recognized it immediately. It was an Absence Seizure with adult onset.

She stated the same as you. There is something seriously wrong with her.

With this type of seizure she shows her residents and interesting technique during clinical diagnosis. She has the patient say the alphabet. The patient will say ABCD and then pause for 8 to 20 seconds. There may also be an action component such as head bobbing and then continue with more of the alphabet followed by more pauses.

This is not an act by Hillary. This is a cover up by her staff and the media.

Thank you, I thought this looked awfully "real" and not contrived.

It's not clear to me from the Wiki article what the prognosis is, i.e., is it a fairly minor condition or can the patient deteriorate, have more frequent and longer seizures etc.?? Wiki refers to possibly 50-100 such seizures per day, that seems to me a gigantic potential issue for a US President! I don't think Hillary could be having very many or very often yet, or else it would be impossible to keep it quiet. Is she likely to deteriorate or is it usually stable with treatment?

Episodes of absence seizures can often be mistaken for inattentiveness when misdiagnosed, and can occur 50-100 times a day. They can be so difficult to detect that some people may go months or years before given a proper diagnosis. There are no known before or after effects of absence seizures

This was definitely not purposefully done. It was, IMHO, as your wife indicates - and absence seizure.

Note the look on the one reporter’s face when the seizure starts - the girl holding out her phone. She knows full well something is happening.

The weird facial expression and crazy eyes on Hitlery afterward are stunning.

That makes a lot of sense. The symptom description #4 seems spot on in describing what we saw with Hillary.

And now I know something new. When I was pregnant the first time, I developed pre-eclampsia. I always thought the doctor prescribed phenobarbitol to control my blood pressure—but those wikipedia articles describe it as an anti-epileptic. Oh, my!

Between the seizures and the coughing, “that woman” does not look like she could withstand the stresses of the presidency. I’m thinking it would be a four year period of occasional public appearances, without much presidential action. It would be a larger scale of her State Department tenure, when she took absolutely no action to beef up security at the embassy or even evacuate the staff when things started looking bad.

Good information - thanks for the link.
