A horrible noise jolted me out of sleep – and it was coming from my son lying in bed next to me. It was a few days after Cody’s 4th birthday; he had also done this a few months earlier, making terrible choking sounds in his sleep, which stopped after about a minute. Cody had had a febrile seizure (one due to a fever) when he was 2, but these two recent events were different: no fever, he (thankfully) did not stop breathing after it, and he regained consciousness once it was done.
