The official confirmation of Cameron Boyce's death noted that the actor was being treated for a seizure disorder (later revealed to be epilepsy). His autopsy report confirmed that the medication he'd been taking, which was called Levetiracetam, was in his system when he died (via E! News). After his death, his parents Victor and Libby Boyce went into more detail about the treatment Cameron had been receiving. It included more than just medication, they revealed to ABC News. "We also had this thing where they wired his head up and had this contraption on to try and capture brain activity. Nothing ever showed," Victor Boyce said.
He continued, explaining that his son received several different types of treatment to determine the cause of his seizures. "They tried to induce him to seize with strobe and different methods, never seized," he added. The dad of two added that his son had seizures only while he was asleep, and Cameron did not remember the seizures afterward. The actor had a total of five seizures, his mother revealed, and he would often bite his lip or his tongue while seizing.
