She had a seizure.

Some weeks should just not exist I think. When it rains it pours.

I think Cait had a generalized seizure this afternoon at church. We were half way through the stations when I start to hear a crash. I look over and she is going down face first onto the floor and shaking. Took a few seconds to get her to respond and I walked her outside. She was pale as a ghost and has a nice bruise on her chin.

For those who haven't been around for a while, Cait has a history of partial seizures and an abnormal EEG. She was on seizure meds for 4 years. We seemed to be past the worst of it and she didn't have any significant seizures for over a year and she had started her period a year before, so we weaned her seizure meds last summer.

She told me after "I thought it was like those other times I see spots and then it clears" WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course she never thought to tell me that was happening. Those all could have been tons of partial seizures.

Heading to the doctors in 5 minutes. Couldn't get a hold of the neurologist so I am going to the peds office to hopefully at least get some help prior to the weekend. Maybe they can get in touch with the neuro.
