Biggest Scare

Our baby, Nolan, had a mild seizure today and it's scared the life out of the whole family. His tiny little body was laid out on the ambulance stretcher and he was taken to the hospital where doctors did their best to calm his parents. Nolan had a slight temperature which apparently caused the seizure and the doctors assured his terrified Mommy and Daddy that this is relatively common and not something to necessarily worry about.

You can bet your life they are worried. Nolan will be watched like a hawk for a long time to come and this episode will always be remembered by his family as a chilling time in our lives. There can be no deeper terror than having your child seriously sick or hurt.

With luck, our baby will never have another seizure. We'd prefer he would never be sick or hurt in his whole life but, right now, we're just hoping for no more seizures.
