Tommy just gave us a big scare. He had a fever at Grandma's house tonight while Brian and I were tearing out the office kitchen. Both Abby and Scott have had fevers this week so I just figured it was his turn. On the way home Tommy gave a few quick loud breaths in. When I looked back at him he was completely stiff, not breathing, his hand was stuck up in the air and he just stared straight in front of him. I knew something was wrong and ordered Brian to drive straight to the hospital! I climbed in back took him out of his seat (stiff as a bored ) and called 911. Well, by the time my darn phone actually contacted them he relaxed, fell limp, and I could feel his heart beating. Brian drove like crazy to the ER because he wasn't sure what was going on. They met us outside, Tommy woke up, and he was perfectly fine! Brian took the kids back to grandma's house and came back. I was still pretty worried about Tommy. They said it was most likely a seizure caused by a rapid temperature increase (which I've heard of before). So they ran some tests just to make sure he didn't have any more serious infections than a cold. Luckily, he checked out well and they sent us home a few hours later.
My poor little Tommy. I will try to treat your fevers better! I thank my God above he is alright!
