My god daughter, now no longer with us had many health issues and was prone to nocturnal seizures which required immediate attention. To keep an eye on her there was a cctv camera over her bed. One night I had the monitor and after being woken by the bells on her wrists I checked the screen to see if it was a fit or she was just playing. It was a fit so I dashed into her bedroom and went straight for the bed, realising about two thirds of the way there that I couldn't actually see anything. The camera could cope with very low levels of light giving a very clear picture. After doing the first stage of sorting her out by touch alone I went back to the door to turn the light on. The next time I looked after her some fairy lights had been put above her bed.
