Shannon Holmes · 1:15:20
That night was one of the most painful nights of my life.
Shannon Holmes · 1:15:26
I am sorry.
Shannon Holmes · 1:15:30
I get these things at night where I'm getting electrocuted and I actually get like, I, it actually physically moves my body because it feels like I'm having like a buildup of, um, electrocution and it just like I can't stop it. It just throws me. And that was the first night it happened.
Glen Motz · 1:16:02
And it hasn't stopped since. So, um, the next day— I just— I need to slow you down here. So what's going through your mind as you're— this has never happened to you before.
Speaker E · 1:16:15
Painful.
Shannon Holmes · 1:16:16
I was just trying to survive, and, um, and I didn't want to wake the kids. I couldn't even barely move. Like, it's just like like you just sort of get tossed around the bed and like trying to cling to things. Oh, and, and clothes hurt, so it feels like they're burning on your skin. So like, so I tore my clothes off and I was just like getting thrown around. I have no idea what was happening.
Glen Motz · 1:16:42
Hey, also, when we were speaking, you were talking about you were getting back pain at that time. Can you share that with us?
Shannon Holmes · 1:16:49
So the pain that I that I still have as well is I feel like I'm getting stabbed straight through my back. And that's why I have to lay down a lot. I don't sit very often because I feel like my spine is crushing and I, uh, it feels like it's choking me.
Glen Motz · 1:17:09
So can you give us a little more detail about that? It's just when I was interesting, uh, interviewing you, um, I was actually finding it interesting that you were describing some of your symptoms almost like there is somebody attacking you.
Shannon Holmes · 1:17:25
Yeah.
Glen Motz · 1:17:25
So, so I don't want you to shy away from that. So you literally feel like somebody has their hands around your neck and—.
Myriam Bohémier · 1:17:32
Yeah.
Shannon Holmes · 1:17:33
Yeah.
Shannon Holmes · 1:17:33
All the time. And whenever I'm sitting.
Glen Motz · 1:17:40
Okay. So that night you're having all of these seizures for hours. I just want to I understand you had a lot of videos, but because it's somebody filming you when you're in your bed, most of them aren't decent. But we have one.
Shannon Holmes · 1:17:53
Yes.
Glen Motz · 1:17:53
And David, can we pull that up? And my understanding is this isn't even— oh, well, first of all, this is a photo of you before.
Shannon Holmes · 1:18:01
Yeah.
Glen Motz · 1:18:01
Like, okay. And let's go to the next one. This is another one of you like you were. These just demonstrate who you were beforehand.
Speaker B · 1:18:09
Yeah.
Glen Motz · 1:18:10
But let's go to this video. And my understanding, this isn't even a bad shocking episode, the one that we're watching. No, it's a mild one. So, and we'll play it twice so you can see.
Shannon Holmes · 1:18:24
I'm like, I'm actually getting like yanked and pulled, but that lasts for hours.
Glen Motz · 1:18:42
And you have no control over this when it starts to happen?
Shannon Holmes · 1:18:48
No.
Glen Motz · 1:18:48
And it's painful when it's happening?
Shannon Holmes · 1:18:49
It's very painful.
Glen Motz · 1:18:51
And it's still happening today?
Dean Allison · 1:18:55
Yep.
Glen Motz · 1:18:55
Okay, so what do you do then? So you've had this first night, you're terrified.
