Father in law staying with us. He has had about 6 epileptic fits today lasting 5 mins or so. He has had them before but number of them in such a short period is worrying. No experience here, any advice would be appreciated.

I would be concerned about epileptic status - simply where he isn't coming round from each seizure properly - contact hospital or 111.
