Jep Robertson suffered a seizure last week, the “Duck Dynasty” star revealed on Twitter.

Fortunately, Jep (the youngest son of “Duck Dynasty” patriarch Phil Robertson) was deer hunting with pals when the seizure happened.
“Earlier this week while deer hunting, Jep suffered from a seizure. Thankfully, he was in the stand with friends, and [brother] Willie was at the hunting camp when it occurred so he was by his side in a matter of minutes,” the “Duck Dynasty” family said in a statement to E!.
The 36-year-old father of four was immediately rushed to the hospital, where he currently remains.
“He is doing well now, but is still in the hospital for additional tests and observation and he is being treated with antibiotics to cover a range of possible infections believed to have caused the seizure,” the family added.
It seems Jep’s sense of humor is healthy ââ¬â on Saturday, he Tweeted a photo merge of Steven Seagal in a hospital bed, along with a pic of himself in a hospital bed.
“Just like Steven Seagal, I’m hard to kill,” read a caption on the photo.
