A man could suffer from four seizures a night as his battle with epilepsy worsened, an inquest has heard.
Jonathon Brennan, from Ellesmere Port, died on April 8 2018 after suffering a cardiac arrest as doctors tried to sedate him following a long spate of seizures. The 28-year-old had been admitted to the neurology and neurosurgery specialists in February after years of failed attempts to improve his epilepsy had left him severely physically disabled, unable to feed himself or cut up his own food.
At his inquest today, his mum Ruth Brennan told the court how Jonathon's epilepsy was mild at first, increasing from "one or two" seizures a year when he was nine-years-old to 40 a year in his mid-teens, before skyrocketing to as many as four a night in his 20s.
