Football player suffers from seizures then end up in coma

A Sequim High School football player remains in intensive care at Harborview Medical Center. Seventeen-year-old Adrien Gault was taken to the Seattle hospital after he went into a coma at Friday night's football game in Sequim.

Gault complained of headaches during the game and was taken out. He then went into seizures and slipped into the coma. Surgeons operated on Gault over the weekend, removing part of his skull to relieve pressure.

Gault has regained consciousness. His family members say he is making eye contact and communicating with them. It's not known how long Gualt will remain in the hospital. Doctors plan to re-attach the part of his skull removed this weekend in about three months.
