Scare of my life!

Last night I put my beautiful boy to bed as usual. I stayed up for another hour and then went to bed myself. I heard him cry out as if something was wrong. I picked him up and he was limp, whining, twitching and very lathargic. He wouldnt respond and it was as though he was sleeping with his eyes open.
I took him straight to the hospital. When we got there he would sit up on my knee and make eye contact but he would still twitch now and then. When we got into his hospital room he finally started to act like himself again. The doctor said it was either a bad dream and he was in a very deep sleep or a seizure! I really would love to believe it was the deep sleep but the twitching for quite some time after makes me question it.
It is so scary being a mother. You really dont realize how much you love your child until your faced with something like this. The thoughts that run through your head as you hold your sick baby, the fear that flows through your body. I am done having babies! One child to constantly worry about is enough for me.
We are waiting to hear when his EEG appoinment is. I have faith everything will come back fine and this will be something I will never have to experience again.

  1. SO SCARY!! But, it shows that you're a fantastic mom because you took him to the hospital and are following through with tests- even though I'm sure you're babe is going to pass with flying colours!
