《The Boy With Rabies》Convulsions

"Shit," the doctor cursed as Theo began seizing. He yelled for assistance as he laid the bed flat. When assistance arrived, they began untying the restraints and inserting medicine through the IV. Theo's body curled in on itself as the seizure continue to shake and rack Theo.
"You're okay," Dr.Scott soothed. "You're okay, Theo." Globs of saliva slid down Theo's cheek. The medicine took, and Theo's body slowly stopped shaking. Tears rolled down his face as he laid there confused and disoriented.
"Oh my god!" A woman's voice yelled.
Theo's mother ran to his bedside as she saw the group of doctors and nurses.
"What happened?" She asked Dr.Scott.
"He had a seizure." The doctor replied. "We gave him medicine, and he should be fine for now, but we're gonna keep him loosely restrained for the night." Lisa nodded and thanked everyone as they left the room. Theo's mother sat by his side, and he turned and looked at her. He tried to speak, but all that came out was a grunt.
"Mmmmm-aaaa." He moaned out weakly.
"Shhh, I'm right here baby." His mother soothed.
"Lisa, I got here as quick as I could!" A man who Theo guessed was his father said as he ran to the bed.
"It's rabies, Matt." Lisa sighed. "He's already had one seizure, and he's only going to get worse." She sighed sadly. Theo turned and looked at his father.
"Nnnnnnnn-daaaaadd...yyy." He weakly said. "I'm right here, buddy," Matt said. "I'm right here."
Later that night
Matt and Lisa were sleeping on a makeshift bed when they were jerked awake by rapid beeping of a heart monitor. They turned to see their son violently seizing. Matt sprinted to the door and yelled for a doctor. Dr.Scott and a few nurses came running in. The oxygen tubes in the boy's nose were replaced with an oxygen mask. Just as a nurse was about to insert a calming sedative into Theo's IV, the seizure stopped, and Theo lay trying to catch his breath.

"You okay, baby?" Lisa asked. Theo gave a weak nod as a response. Theo weakly held out a shaking hand, yearning for it to be held. Lisa looked at Dr.Scott who handed her four pairs of protective gloves, two pairs for her and two pairs for her husband. Lisa put both pairs on and grabbed hold of her son's hand. She rubbed her son's hand as his eyes closed and he fell asleep.

The Silver Mana - Book 1: Initiate
I used to be a healthy, young guy with a normal life - I had a career planned in professional soccer, a girlfriend, lots of hobbies, and loads of fun. Until the accident. Which changed my life. A few years later I had adjusted to my new reality, adjusted to being in a wheelchair, adjusted to having someone take care of me 24/7. And then the world changed. Old people and kids did not make it. And neither was I supposed to make it. But never count me out. If anything, I am tenacious. This new world was different. People could do magic. And there were monsters. And what about me? I had mana as well, silver mana. Which no one else seemed to have. The only problem was, I did not know what to do with it. Until I really needed to. Author's note: This is the rewrite of Silver Mana. The first bunch of chapters (until I will have caught up to level 2 of the dungeon) should be quite familiar to people that have read the original. There are some changes in content, but the story follows the original fairly closely for at least the first 150-200 pages. Most of the changes are in the writing, and some of the details of how things work. A few of the side characters get a bit more attention too. Some general comments to avoid disappointment: 1. The MC likes to swear. If you object to reading the word "fuck" at least once and usually multiple times each chapter don't read the book. "Fuck" is such a great, allencompassing word... fuck that; what the fuck?; fuck me! Fuck! one word, expressing so many nuances. And, frankly, the people I know that use fuck as a swear word.. they often use it a lot. 2. If you are looking for immediate progression, rapid advancement of the story, etc.... read another book. This one takes a bit. 3. I am NOT Pirateaba (who is writing The Wandering Inn) or anyone close to that level of productivity. If you expect to read 10k words every 3 days, or even just once a week... sorry. I've got a busy life. This is for fun, I have no patreon, paypal, anything, so I write when it is fun and however much is fun. Not more. And sometimes that turns out to be a decent amount, sometimes nothing. I have another book (Marrow) so that complicated things - basically I switch between the two whenever the muse strikes me.
