Protected: Yesterday's meeting

Ming had another seizure tonight. Like last time, it only lasted about 30 seconds, and he didn’t seem to be disturbed by it. In fact, I’m not even sure he was conscious while it was going on. After it stopped, he seemed fine, just a bit confused and slightly wobbly for a few minutes. So…
