Its been a very sad week but the outcome was an answer to prayers.

Our son Kolby got sick last friday, and everyday he got weaker and sicker and so we just thought that it was the flu which it was and we just watch him and his temperature like normal right? Well he had temps of 103 on monday and tuesday so i gave him tylenol which his temp would go down to 100. So on tuesday he kept complaining of headaches and how he couldnt walk or use his arms and his speech was lacking. Well we went to go and put him to bed and we took his temp it said 98.3 and he wasn't talking to us when we asked him questions then Ryan picked him up and his eyes started rolling and he started having a seizure. Ryan picked him up and we started running up the stairs called 911 and Ryan was trying to give him CPR and he stopped breathing and turned blue so Ryan picked him up and ran to the truck with his dad and they took him to the hospital while my brother-in-law drove me to the hospital. I really dont want to tell you the rest cuz it was very sad watching my son go through a seizure. But my boy made it threw a long seizure and it was really hard. The seizure lasted for up to 2 hours on and off which is not GOOD at all. We have been so busy with going to see the doctor to the hospitals, to get his blood drawn, to waking him up at midnight and staying up with him all through the night so he could get a EEG test the next morning and then going to see the neurologist the next day... He has been a very strong boy through all of this and its sad watching him go through it all. Its been a very long 2 weeks. To start the next week off he has to get another EEG done along with blood drawn and hopefully we will know why and what caused this seizure. A lot of prayers have been said and a lot of Faith in our home. Its amazing how one day can turn into a scary almost losing your child to a very scary seizure. If there was some advice i could give you today, it would be that when your child is sick you watch and you listen to them and that you take action and you go with your gut feeling and you listen to the still small voice. I don't ask a lot in people but if i can could you say a prayer for our son. i will keep you posted on what we find out next week.
