My brother was diagnosed with epilepsy when he was in grade school. He had two or three incidents where he had seizures in school, it was pretty scary there for a while, I can't imagine how my parents must have felt (I'm only 2 years older, so I don't recall exactly).
It can definitely be frightening, so I guess I can understand why your aunt panicked like that, but wow... that's a little overboard. Hopefully now that the initial shock is over she can learn about it and learn what she should/shouldn't do if it a recurring thing, or for any other emergencies.
Just reading this makes me want to take a CPR class... I don't think I'd freak out in a situation like that, but I don't have any real training and I wouldn't really know what to do either.
Good luck to your family Slyboots, hope everything is ok in the end.
