so... um... shit happened

[partiallysunny]

Kid had two "seizure like episodes" yesterday. We stayed over night in the hospital for observation. He's getting an EEG done in a little bit to confirm if they were in seizures.

Eep. Keep us posted!

[tiramisu]

[karenj]

[sparksfly]

OMG! PS, I hope everything is ok. I will be thinking of you and the little guy today.

(((((((hugs)))))))

OMG partiallysunny that is so effing scary. I'm so sorry. All I can say is, I know quite a few people who have had this happen to their kids, for basically no reason. (Not no reason of course, but no long term or scary diagnosis) Sometimes it can just be a fever. My thoughts are with you and Bubby.

(hug)  (hug2)

i hope all is ok...please keep us updated ((()))

[partiallysunny]

motzie that's what we're hoping. The first one, the ER sent us home. He's been sick, so that's what they attributed it to. But because he had two in 24 hours, they are a little more concerned.

[cuddlyevil]

I hope it is nothing, but please let us know if there is anything we can do.

[gault]

Oh no. :-( that is so scary.

[partiallysunny]

They have to give him a catheter, because he can't pee in a cup. Oh man. Pee guy


Edit: well I meant poor guy, but pee guy works too.

[margarita]

Awwwww. Poor little guy.

[cuddlyevil]

Aw, poor guy.

Do they have any more ideas about why he had the two episodes?

[captainmel]

Ugh partiallysunny, I am sorry! I really hope it is nothing and he is back to himself soon. Hugs to you and Bubby!

[starrieskies]

HUGE hugs to you!! That's so scary!!

[Chirp]

Hugs to you and Bubby. Poor little guy.

Hopefully it's nothing big and just part of that yuck that he's had lately.

Let us know if you need anything.

[partiallysunny]

Just got done with the EEG. He cried. I cried. Just waiting for results.

They decided not to do the catheter (yay!)

[partiallysunny]

cuddlyevil from the chat we had with the neurologists, it's probably hereditary (H had seizures as a child). Though being sick didn't help the situation.

They gave us information on how to handle them and an emergency medicine in case he has a seizure lasting more than 5 minutes. If he has them frequently/reoccurring they'd consider a daily medication.

The EEG just seems like an extra test to give them more information on the situation.

[cuddlyevil]

Awe, partiallysunny, I hope it doesn't become a regular thing.

I know they are scary, but there is a lot of support out there for kids and families now. {{HUG}}

[Chirp]

Hopefully it doesn't become a regular thing. I loved that pic of him eating that big breakfast this morning.

(hug)partiallysunny and bubby (hug2)

[partiallysunny]

EEG came back good. We're being released. Yay! It's a "wait and see what happens next" situation. Which is what I expected.

[cuddlyevil]

Good news! Hopefully it'll just be a fluke due to his being sick.

[Deleted]

Good news!

[margarita]

Good news!

[starrieskies]

Great news!!! Yay!

[gault]

[captainmel]
