Bryson's New Trick...

What a fun day we had at the Eisel house yesterday.

Bryson learned a new trick...how to turn completely blue! I have never been so terrified in my life. I wasn't even this freaked out when he was having his seizures or in the PICU. This was awful! I had the phone in my hand and I was getting ready to call 911 when he finally pinked up. I didn't want to take him to the ER, because once it was over he was fine and I knew they would just poke him and stick him to no end so I took him to the pediatrician's office and they said that he has now become a breath holder. GREAT. I need this like a hole in the head. She said it can get pretty bad, some kids put themselves into seizures and passing out and that it will just get worse as he gets older. She said sometimes you have no choice BUT to call 911. This is just great. He did it again today during therapy, but not as bad. It sure scared the therapist, though. She was ready to give him oxygen. I guess kids tend to do it more when they are angry or upset, in both cases for him he was crying. I knew kids could do this but had NO idea it would be this terrifying. Lets just add one more thing to our pile!

Otherwise things are good! Bryson has been really healthy. We are starting him on the antibiotic as a prophylactic and are STILL waiting to get the genetic tests done. Its very frustrating.

Hope everyone has a Happy and safe Halloween!
