and i was worried about the bewitching hour!?!

just a few short hours ago (really- less than 8) i was enjoying some sweet moments with sweet p and commenting on what our little dinnertime scene might look like. i anticipated a harried afternoon. but who knew what this day had in store for me?

without getting into the nitty gritty details of it all (i know- gasp- tasha, not sharing all the details???) i'll just say that this day has been a doozie.

it began with an early morning wake-up from poppy. as p was going down for her morning nap, d finally woke up. she was in a bad state. from the get-go i could tell something was wrong. within minutes my little babe melted and ended up having a seizure. 911 was called, paramedics spent some time in our living room, we spent quite a bit of time in the doctor's office, blood was drawn, stool samples taken... it was an ordeal. there was talk about admitting her for dehydration- but they were baffled because she was eating and drinking. long story short- we aren't sure what to make of it all.

our little muffin appears "sick" but is absent of a fever. this rules out a febrile seizure. so now we stand with another blood draw tomorrow, a possibility of a delayed hospitalization and an appointment to be scheduled with a neurologist. some of her levels were low and it left our doctor confused. the good news is that our doctor seems to be on top of things and we feel like we are in good hands.


and through it all, our little d kept a smile on her face (for the most part)- she didn't even cry when they drew blood! seriously, she is a trooper.

we are trying not to worry unnecessarily, but we are a little confused. it doesn't all add up.

and so tonight, d is in her bed and all seems fine. just like it did last night at this time. if you are the praying type, would you lift our little d up?

and while you are on your knees, if you wouldn't mind praying for my hubby, the bar exam is tuesday and thursday.

thanks,
t
