whitepinesquilter Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Oh, bless Becka's baby heart. Prayers to your family, and (((hugs))) to Grandma! Our grandson is terribly sick with a bug right now and has lost over a pound in a week (he's 9 months old), and I know how hard to it to be a grandma and not be able to make it better. Prayers your way for all of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattyJo Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Hi Marci & welcome to the forum. I've missed your previous posts so I'm getting my "welcome" in better late than never. I'll be praying for your little grandson. A pound in a week on a little tyke is a lot. I hope that he quickly gains that back. And thanks everyone for your prayers. When I know more, I'll post an update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattyJo Posted December 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 this is the most recent update from my son ...... all the tests came back "normal" which is to say, they don't know why. it is good to know that she doesn't have a tumor or brain trauma from her early life. but it is also puzzling as the common causes for seizures have been ruled out. we had appt this am with her pediatrician who checked her over again ... and she looks good. we have appt monday with pediatric neurologist. we are working to schedule appt with pediatric endocrinologist ... they are taking new patients in Feb/Mar. ouch will keep you posted. bekah is doing well today, just very tired and hungry. we are hoping for a solid naps all around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Patty Jo, This is all very good news. If her EEG is normal that is a very good sign. I wonder if she had a fever that could have caused the seizure. We had to wait 3 months for daughters MRI when she had her seizures and that was stressful. She ended up having 2 more so they moved her up to immeidate status. That also got us into the specialist sooner so if she should have another make sure son pushes for them to see her sooner. I know how scary it is and the things that go through your head while you wait for test results. Prayers that it is nothing and thankfully you have ruled out a tumor.

Bekah Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Thanks for the update on dear little Bekah Patty Jo. Prayers still coming her way and hugs yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meg_marsh Posted December 9, 2011 Report Share Posted December 9, 2011 Such good news, even though no cause is determined. Seizures in little ones, unfortunately, are not as uncommon as we want to believe. Many prayers to the family as they work through the necessary appointments. Glad the little "monkey" is doing so much better today and is home where she belongs. Marci - many prayers for your little one also..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennyquilts Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 What good news, so glad she is home. It is so stressful when our little ones have a health issue like this. Bless you and your family I will still keep her in my prayers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitaR Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Am so curious, if their tree is up, does it have flashing or flickering lights on it?? That could spark siezures in some.. if tree is up and lit, did the siezures start before or after it was set up and in use?? God help in the search and solution for an assist, discovery and stabilization at the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted December 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Rita, that is a good question and I don't know the answer to that, but because she is crawling (not quite walking yet) they may not have it up because she is a "fast" mover. I'll have to ask. But you are right about flicker lights cause they even cause migrains sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizziesgirl Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Seizures suck and they leave the family feeling so helpless. I know this all to well. Daniel had another seizure Thursday night at basketball practice, 17th one this year. He is on such high meds. They told us that everyone is allowed 1 seizure in their life. Daniel's EEG showed seizure activity so therefore it was determined he was prone to having them and needed meds to control them. Just now finding the right ones/dosage. My prayers are for all of you and the doctors. She is a lucky little girl to have all the love surrounding her. A suggestion go to Epilepsy.com and look at their resources they have there and especially what to do and what not to do when someone is having a seizure. There are a lot of misconceptions out there and there are around 32 different types of seizures, not just convulsive. Daniel has non-convulsive seizures mostly. Actually this is a good suggestion to all of you that read this, please inform yourself about seizures. Hugs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted December 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Good information Sheryl. I'll pass this along to them. I know both my son and DIL are into researching everything. My son found that the one med that they put her on in the hospital (can't remember the name) has many horrible side effects including addiction!!!! I know that they needed to control them, but I sure hope the Dr on Monday can change that in a hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gable428 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Bekah is absolutely adorable! Thoughts and prayers going up for all of you. Hope the doctors figure out what is going on so it can be dealt with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmyhogan Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Adding Bekah and her family to my prayer list. It helps me when I have a name of the person I pray for and really helps when I have a picture of them in a healthy state. Keep focused on what she was like before the problem and how healthy you want her to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cblevins Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 My daughter had seizures starting at 4 months and ending at 15. Hers were caused by a build up of scar tissue on one side of her brain due to a forcep delivery. She was on medication that kept them fairly well controlled (phenabarbitol). After the seizures stopped she started having migraines. She is 38 now and the headaches have gotten much better in the past few years. There are so many things that can cause seizures. Let's hope and pray this was an isolated incident or at least that they can be well controlled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
