So I got a call today that my son was in the hospital. The drive was agonizing to get there and seemed to take forever. It turns out he had a seizure but no one knows why. He has an appointment with a neurologist scheduled. I was so grateful to see him, there aren't enough words to express that. I slowly exhaled the breath I was holding. But he was alert and responsive when I got there so there is that. Now we wait for his appointment and go from there.

Sorry to hear about your son VG. Prayers and positive thoughts for him and you. The stress of being a parent sometimes is not easy is it.

@"Vikergirl" said: Thanks again purple peeps. I am not ruling anything out. I am looking at any and every possibility. It's going to be a long couple of days. I talked with my sister for a bit. She is a doctor and gave me additional advice. I am going to talk with some nurses and doctors at work as well. Thanks for the input. You have helped a great deal. I am not going to give in to worry or fear or worst case scenarios. We'll figure it out one way or another. His CAT scan was normal.
The normal scan is great news. Must be so hard though. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, VG.

Here's hoping that the issue is quickly determined, and is very treatable...!
