I know that is scary to watch. When I was 38 weeks pregnant with my youngest, my husband had a grand mal seizure followed by 24 hours of focal seizures. The hospital discharged him having focal seizures!! He was so scared that he was begging me to take him back to the hospital.<br /><br />Now I know where Emily gets her compassion from. The fact that you cared enough to say something to the charge nurse, even in passing, about the other family and what they were going through...it brought tears to my eyes.The world would be a much better place to live in if there were more caring people like you!sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01751389029725410849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-35737902513762597402010-09-30T11:52:11.971-05:002010-09-30T11:52:11.971-05:00I just noticed Finnian's mom's comment abo...I just noticed Finnian's mom's comment about morphine and seizures,from your previous blog. My John's Hopkins Hospital Handbook does note a risk of seizures in neonates, and risk of seizures in all patients, in high doses.Kimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-74031947926905563122010-09-30T11:26:01.025-05:002010-09-30T11:26:01.025-05:00I am sorry to hear about Jude's rough night an...I am sorry to hear about Jude's rough night and the seizure. I remember when my Ashley would get ear infections,or get sick,she would sometimes have horrible seizures. Her seizures always required emergency intervention with IV medication. One lasted close to two hours. I was terrified at the time, but she pulled through just fine. It sounds like you have good nurses working with Jude. If they can control Jude's pain, as you said, and keep his temperature down, while continuing his antibiotics, he should do better soon. Tylenol minus the codeine, along with his pain medication,would probably be good, if his temp continues to be a problem. Also, what you did for that family who lost their child is so compassionate. Both you and Jude have helped them, probably more than you will ever know. Thank you for keeping us posted. Jude has alot of people who love and care for him. Continued prayers, and God Bless.Kimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8581317431133132518.post-71404546918948668402010-09-30T10:57:11.399-05:002010-09-30T10:57:11.399-05:00praying for you and Jude.praying for you and Jude.Tami and Bobby Sisemore Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187334120592808316noreply@blogger.com
