My Little Chicken has been a little down and out with the allergies. We took her to the Velocity care Saturday afternoon and they said sinus infection. THey gave her some prescriptions and we left. Fast forward to bed time, she was running fever and we gave her some meds for it. I got kicked to the couch to make room for chicken in the bed with momma. At 2 am the wife felt her fever going up and gave her some tylenol. About 4:45 my wife hollered to me. When I came in (knew something had to be wrong) our 19 month old was having a seziure. I have taken CPR/FA for 8.5 years. All that training went right out the window. All I could do was Dial 911, I did my best to calmly give detailed info to the operator. The second I was finished the woman hung up on me. WTH, i thought they were supposed to stay on the line until help arrived. About 10 minutes later I called back. A few seconds later I could see the Sherrif coming up the street. The ambulance got there shortly after. This is like 15 minutes after the whole thing started. They EMT came in and picked up our daughter who until then had been unresponsive. As he carried her out to the ambulance she arroused. They took her temp, 103.4. They said she had suffered a febrile seizure (fever induced seizure). The took her to the ER and she was ok. Found out that about 2% of kids will have them. If they have it before age 1 then there is a 50% chance it will reoccur. After age 1 the chance drops to 30%. These will stop by age 6. Also, there is no physical or nervous damage done by the seizure.
After we got home I looked at my mom who had been watching our older girl and told her i know know how she felt when her baby (me) was sick or injured (I've had a few serious injuries growning up). I gave her a huge hug.
Heck of a way to get woke up on a Sunday morning.
Thank the good Lord thank all is O.K. I can't imagine how scary that was. I pray that she is on the mend.. :cross2:
glad she is ok, ataboy to you for getting her fast help.
:jesus-cross: :bible:
Praise God all is well. :cross2: :cross2: :cross2:
That's some scary stuff for sure. I'm glad your daughter is going to be OK.
I sort of know how you feel. My son who has Autism started having them when he was 9 months old. The first time he had one my wife called 911 and gave them our mailing address instead of our 911 address. Hard to believe with a child going through all that, no damage is really done. After he has them now he just sleeps for about 3 more hours. It is one of the most scariest thing a parent can see.
Glad all is ok.
Glad she is okay nothing scarier than a sick and unresponsive child!
