You are describing an individual with what appears to be very limited or non-existent seizure control, and clearly several days of premonitory warnings, or even auras. You do not mention any details about the treatment. Appropriate anti-epileptic drugs should be employed at therapeutic levels. See a pediatric neurologist ASAP, and get this handled.
