My gf was smoking weed and had a seizure and heres what happened

Okay so first off. My girlfriend is 16 years old and has smoked probably only about 10 or 20 times in her life. She hadnt smoked for like 3 months when we smoked. Now before u say anything. WE DID NOT SMOKE SPICE OR K2. I smoked this weed with so many people and everyone acted fine. The day before me and my girlfriend smoked she had not eaten a lot and missed dinner and didnt drink any water. She has a lot of stress in her life and the night before we smoked went through a huge argument/fight with her parents. She was woken up the next morning at 8 am by her mom saying "your 2 best friends are in the hospital they were in a car wreck and are in horrible condition" she didnt drink any water this day and ate 1 taco. Thats all. Obviously the hospital and the night before and her life at this time was super stressfull, plus she bearly ate in the last 15 or so hours and had bearly any water. Right after she left the hospital she went to my house. We usually cant smoke but my parents werent home so we did. I had a pretty big blunt because i put 2 rillos together. There was about 2 grams in it. It want burning super good so we were taking many hits that were kind of smaller hits so i feel like she maybe had less oxygen in her body. Anyway, we were over halfway through with the blunt and she goes "...woah... I dont feel good" immediately after hitting the blunt once. She falls kind of and has a small faint but never really like fully fainted, she just says she was super woozy and every sound was super muffled and she couldnt see right and everything was blurry. She scared me a lot and randomly was like stand up w me and i held her and she was like "i cant stand..." and slowly passed out in my srms. Immediately when i felt all her weight on me i knew she was unconcious i slowly put her down. Halfway through putting her down she began to have a seizure. Her muscles spasmed her back was arched, neck bent back, mouth was making weird noises not too violent though, her eyes were fluttering and she just looked like she was having a seizure. She stopped shaking but still had a look in her face of "im still in seizure mode" and then came back to reality about 10 sec later. She wasnt really in reality though. She was talking all weird and could only lay down and didnt seem to know what happened. I was crying and she was like "why are you crying?" And she had no emotion at all except happiness every few seconds. Shed smile and tell me i was handsome, stare in the sky and it felt like she was only registering half of what i said. She said she was zoning out and remembers some stuff afyer the seizure but not it all. She remembes everything like 30 min after the seizure happened thoigh. Anyways i just sat with her until she felt ok and then 30 min later we went inside and watched tv. I asked her about what happened snd told her and she was lostening but it still didnt see like she understood what eas going on. Remember: after the seizure she was not sad or snything she was perfectly fine. Then about an hour later when she was pretty much fully with me, she understood everything and realized why i was crying and hoe much she scared me. Before she did not know this. Anyway what she remembers is the beginning when she first fainted and she remmeberd after the seizure me crying and like she was zoning out at the clouds and like wasnt really fully with me and at first told me it wasnt real life. What ive looked up is that weed apparently can cause seizures if you havent eaten or drinken in a while and if the THC percentage in the weed is very high. She swears she was fine and then after she took liek her 15 or 20th hit or so of the pretty big blunt she immediately felt crazy and lost hearing and fainted somewhat and saw all blurry. Obviously her blood sugar and stuff was low and i read that can cause seizures too. I also read about vasovagal syncope but it doesnt seem like thats what it was because it doens say that causes seizures. I am just really scared and am looking for input. Main info is basically: 16 yr old girl, hadnt smoked in months, smoked a lot, hadnt eaten ( she had 1 taco for breakfast and missed dinner the nigt before, it was like 2pm at the time) or drinken water in a long time, very stressed, suddenly after her 20th or so hit felt like she was gonna faint, 30 seconds later she did faint and had a seizure that lasted about 30 or so seconds maybe a lil longer, then had a good 30 min episode of major confusion and total... how do i say... she jusy wasnt there. She didnt know what was going on and when i was telling her didnt seem like she was processing it. She felt weird the rest of the day and had light muscle spasms and didnt fully realize everything till a good hour after her seizure/fainting epidemic. Will answer any questions... sorry for the long post... just a scared boyfriend in love wanting to know what happened to my baby

I'm not sure if that's what she had.  It sure does sound like it.  I do wonder though if she just passed out from not eating and smoking weed.  Have you told a doctor about this?  They would have more information than we would here.
