He was in the seizure for over 90 minutes by the time I left him with the other vet. They called me about 2 1/2 hours later and told me he had died.

He didn't seem to be aware of anything once he went into the seizure so I guess in a way I kinda was with him when he "passed". The last thing he consciously did was pull away from me (I was holding him as I drove home) and he went to the passenger seat and immediately went into the seizure.
