A little scare but all is well

Okay, it was a big scare. On Wed my little Hope was feeling a little under the weather all day so we spent the whole day snuggling. Later that evening I went to wipe her nose and she did 5 or 6 very jerky compulsive movements and her eyes rolled back in her head and then she went completely limp and I had to catch her. She came back around quickly right as Austin was walking through the door. I told Austin what she just did and that I was worried. He ran upstairs to change his clothes and then Hope went into a full siezure. I screamed for Austin and he ran down the stairs and gave her a blessing immediately. Her arms and legs were convulsively jerking inward and her head was tilted to one side with her eyes completely dialated and in the corner of her eyes. I was of course crying and calling her name and she wasnt responding at all, this lasted for about 7-8 min. Austin called 911 and the paramedics arrived within 5 min. My other girls were of course scared out of their minds with mom crying and big men running in the house grabbing their baby sister and hauling her out of the house. I went in the ambulance and Austin stayed with the kids long enough to calm them down and settle them in at the neighbors house. In the ambulance we think she had another siezure and this time stopped breathing and had to be put on oxygen. By the time we arrived at the hospital she had spiked a fever of 103 and was unresponsive for about an hour before she started to come around again. The poor baby didn't remember the siezures at all for all she knows she woke up and was being poked with needles by complete strangers. We were transfered up to Childrens hospital and they ran a bunch of tests. Luckily all of the tests came back okay and they were able to chalk these siezures up to Febrile Siezures which can happen to kids between the ages of 6 mo to 5 yrs when they spike a fever too quickly. She is doing great now and back to climbing all over everything and getting into everything. It is wierd how much I joy in that now!!! What perspective can do for you! As I was in the hospital looking back at how scared I was and how I was uncertain of the future for my baby, I couldn't help but think about you Rachel and what a strength you are and how scared you must have felt when they took little Hayden away and you had no knowledge if he was going to be okay. I wish with all of my heart that I could have been there with you! I am so glad that little Hayden is okay. We continue to keep your little man in our prayers. Thank you for being such a strength and example to me! I feel so blessed to have such great friends out there that I can share my hopes and dreams and fears with and gain from your strengths! Lot of love to you all!!!
