When Neil Taylor and his wife Alex found out they were expecting their first child, it should have been the most exciting time of their lives.
But just 13 weeks into the pregnancy, on Christmas Day 2016, Neil had a seizure out of the blue. Terrified, Alex phoned for an ambulance. Neil was checked out by a doctor who advised him to return if it happened again.
It was Boxing Day night when the second seizure struck in his sleep. The couple went back to the doctor in the morning and Neil was referred to a neurologist for a scan, medics unsure whether his condition may have been sleeping disorder or epilepsy.
