The operator\u2019s calm voice guided me through the haze of fear. My wife was still breathing, but her face had turned pale, her body completely unresponsive. As I described her condition, the dispatcher urged me to stay on the line until help arrived.<\/p>\n

At the hospital, after several tense hours, we got the diagnosis: my wife had suffered a silent seizure in her sleep, one that could have caused severe complications if not treated in time. The doctors said she was lucky\u2014if no one had noticed, she might not have woken up at all.<\/p>\n
