Jude was up congested throughout the night. He coughed, he wheezed, he just seemed very restless. I went ahead and went to work after informing his nurse what his night was like. About 9am I got a call at work that she was concerned about Jude. That is highly unusual for her so I knew she was concerned. She said that Jude had suffered about a 45 minute cluster seizure, had an elevated temp, and his heart rate was hovering between 180 - 200. After calling the DR we called 911 and had them come get Jude.
Luckily we were discharged with a diagnosis of a viral upper respiratory infection most likely contracted from allergies from the TX wildfires. Crazy huh? So we are at home with a prescription for steroids (if needed) and extra sedative to help him sleep through the seizures.
Luckily he is okay. Also, can I ask for some prayers for my cousin. She is facing a difficult time right now and her heart needs hugs.
Thanks!
