"Going out to a disco at the weekend."
5:57am Friday
Flat Fire Mood
Sunday, November 8, 2009
on Friday I started to cook food in the microwave.  A couple of minutes into cooking the smoke alarm sounded and the kitchen was covered in thick grey smoke.  I managed to call the fire briggade and open the door.  I was found by the firemen in a seizure which lasted they said for 8 minutes.  I was taken to hospital and had a further seizure for 2 minutes.  I think this time the smell of the smoke in the back of my throat triggered the seizures.  I am glad I had a smoke alarm as it saved my life.
