Duck Dynasty star Jep Robertson, 36, has recently suffered from a seizure while hunting. Robertson was rushed to a nearby hospital where he got immediate help.

"Earlier this week while deer hunting, Jep suffered from a seizure." A rep from A & E confirmed to Us Weekly in a statement. "Thankfully, he was in the stand with friends, and Willie was at the hunting camp when it occurred so he was by his side in a matter of minutes."

Robertson, whose family became wealthy from their family-run business, Duck Commander took to his Twitter page on Saturday, October 25. "Well, I about died this past Sunday...I'm doing much better now. Thanks for all the prayers! #seizuresuck #gladtobealive."

The youngest of Phil Robertson's children also posted an article regarding his scary health scare, "Here's the story..." with a link to a TMZ article.

The article states that Jep was in the stand with friends when the seizure occurred. Willie (Phil's third son) quickly ran to his brother's side, in which Jep was then rushed to a nearby hospital.

"Jep was rushed to the hospital and received immediate treatment," the statement to Us continued. "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 statement continues. "Our family would like to thank everyone for their love and support and ask that you keep Jep, Jessica and their children in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time."
