If You Read this, PLEASE PRAY for Us!

We got a call from our youngest daughters school today, one that no parent wants to get. She has had a history of Absence Epilepsy, which manifests itself in the form of staring spells, where she just blanks out for a few seconds and doesn't remember anything that happened in those few seconds. Today however, while at school, she had what is known as a Grand Mal seizure which is usually associated with full blown Epilepsy. She was taken by ambulance to Children's Hospital and looked at by the ER doctor. All seemed fine and she was released with a prescription for a new medicine. Wore out from the experience she fell asleep in my recliner and while asleep she had another seizure. Again, she was taken by ambulance to Children's Hospital but this time she was to be admitted for observation. Before they could get her into a room, she had a third seizure which lasted longer than the two prior. At the present time she is resting comfortably in the hospital and we pray that this is the end of her Grand Mal seizures. Please pray for her and for us, she has to be scarred though she is a trooper and you wouldn't know she was. I know that her mother and I are very scarred for her, because we cannot control this.

Sincerely,

Photoman
