Did Winston have a Head Injury?
If So.
If it is Epilepsy - it can be triggered by a head injury.

It is hereditary in my husbands family.
my son had a head injury when he was 4 yrs old with a epileptic seizure.
The Pediatric Neurologist said the fall with the head injury triggered his epilepsy sooner & that he might grow out of it.
He had one Grand Mall Seizure that day & Petit Mall there afterwards till his was older. He was meds 3 times a day for Vertigo until he was about 16 yrs old.
