I had just come out of a big epileptic seizure before even starting my day. I was too groggy to notice an alert from Echo — and Ruben was too busy cleaning up the mayhem from the first seizure to notice. Typically, Echo barks to alert. But when human help is present, he’s taught to alert quietly and stay out of the way. He lays on top of me to keep my joints from dislocating as this is so common with Vascular Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. Ruben didn’t get to film the first seizure and the home cameras were charging. From what I heard, it was sudden and chaotic. It was only until we looked back at what he did capture that we noticed Echo knew and deliberately pushed my hand up to target the alert. #EpilepsyAwareness #SeizureAlertDog #ServiceDogLife #MedicalAlertDog #VascularEDS Disability Advocate Invisible Illness Service Dog Intelligence
