A seizure is like a little storm in the brain’s electrical system, and it’s not all that rare for a usually healthy person to have one. Doctors said Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. suffered “a benign idiopathic seizure” Monday, meaning that its cause is unknown. Two-thirds of people who have one seizure never have another. After two seizures, the likelihood of another at some point is greater than 60 percent.
