Mila Kunis comes to rescue of man suffering a major seizure

May, 08, 2012 | AUTHOR: Darren O; | Related : Mila Kunis

Actress Mila Kunis apparently pulled a McDreamy over the weekend as she came to the assistance of a man and very well could have saved his life.

A 50-year-old man who works for Mila suffered a violent seizure at her Los Angeles home on Saturday. This unidentified man was choking, vomiting and coughing up blood after he had bitten through his tongue.

Mila was home at the time and reacted accordingly as she rushed to his aid, and had a friend dial 911. She turned the man’s head on its side to help prevent him from choking while another person on the scene stuffed a wallet in to the man’s mouth to prevent him from swallowing his tongue.*While the thought was good behind this action, putting something in someone’s mouth is something you should NEVER do to someone who is in the middle of a seizure. It can cause them further injury, and you also risk being bitten, and there is no risk that a person having a seizure is going to swallow their tongue, even if there is bleeding.

Paramedics arrived and swept the man away to a nearby hospital. Kunis volunteered to ride along but the trained professionals informed her that it wouldn’t be necessary.

Props to Mila for taking charge and knowing what to do in an extremely volatile situation. This is especially the case considering that the day before a known stalker of hers was arrested when he showed up at her gym and was taken away in handcuffs.

Just to be clear… because as an epileptic I really hate when false information gets spread… you are NEVER supposed to shove ANYTHING into a person’s mouth who is having a seizure. The idea that we will swallow our tongues its a myth. As far as turning his head, kudos to Mila. That will keep him from aspirating on his vomit. However, be very careful approaching anyone having a seizure, especially a violent one. You should more concerned about them hurting you than them hurting themselves at that point. The strength we have during seizures is unmeasurable, and we are not aware of what we are doing. We can seriously hurt someone who comes to close and doesn’t know what they are doing.
