A medical doctor would be better able to answer the question. If there were no other complications beside the seizure (such as head trauma, etc), I would imagine that he would have a normal recovery. You may want to ask a neurologist on medhelp.org. I believe there are a few in Neurology from the Cleveland Clinic.
