Mitchell's Seizure

Mitchell, our oldest son, suffered from a seizure this past Monday. He awoke from his nap at around 2:30 in the afternoon and felt warm to me. He only had a slight runny nose in the morning but was eating and drinking fine. I thought nothing of it and he cried for an hour. I thought he was just tired and needed to go back to sleep. Finally, I gave him motrin around 3pm made a quick phone call and thought he had gone back to sleep because it was quiet in his room. I walked in to find him vomiting out of his nose and mouth, stiff, eyes to one side, and unresponsive. I picked him up, stripped him of his clothes, and tried to get him to look at me and respond. Nothing happened so I immediately called 911 seeing Emily's seizure playing back in my mind. The ambulance arrived and they suctioned his mouth and opened his airway again. He didn't start to come to and ask for me for about 10 minutes. I immediately thought to myself, "Why did I ignore his crying for so long?" They took his temp and it was only 101. When we got to the hospital it had gone down even more and the doctor there was sure it was only a Febrile seizure, a seizure caused by an elevated temperature. The same type of seizure Emily had suffered from. They took chest x-ray's and it showed he had some kind of virus going on but no fluid in the lungs. We took Emily and Mitchell in today for a follow up with their pediatrician. Emily has a sinus infection and is now on a nebulator to help her breath and after talking to the doctor about Mitchell, she says it is not a classic case of a Febrile Seizure. He did not display convulsions or a high fever and it came on so quickly with no real sick symptons preceeding it. She says there is a chance it could be epileptic(sp?) so we are going to take him to Valley Children's Hospital for an EEG. I almost lost it today when she said that, because the very thought of that hospital makes me cringe and brings tears to my eyes. To think we have to go back for Mitchell makes it even harder. He is still sick and she found some spots in the back of his throat that looks like it might be strep which could have caused the seizure but she wanted to rule out everything. Please keep Mitchell in your prayers, as we attempt to be strong for him and run the tests needed to find out what is going on.
