Didn't quite make it....

On Thursday night Ana had another of her big seizures. Matt and I were hoping to make it one whole year without one. We were a month short of a year. Thankfully because of some great medicine this seizure was only 7 minutes. But it did require the ambulance to come to our house and bring us to the ER. Ana recovered very quickly from the seizure. Unfortunately the next day she became super sick. By Saturday she was having trouble breathing so back into the ER we went. Turns out she has croup. She is on some good medicine now and is feeling much better.
But wow, two ER trips in a couple of days and a total of 4 ER visits in less then a year for one little girl. Thankfully she's a fighter. She's almost back to her usual smiling self.
Although Matt and I are a little bummed we didn't make the one year seizure free mark, we are really glad to have discovered that the medicine we carry around with us at all times really does help Ana!!

WOW, that is scary, I am so glad that she is better. We will be praying that she is seizure free now. Hope the croup goes away fast, we have had it too, not fun!
