Julian has really been holding his own, even learning ABC song!
However....
Julian came down with the flu on Saturday. He then started having some strange facial jerks on Sunday. His neurologist is out of the country so his mother took him to the pediatrician yesterday (Monday). The pediatrician felt they were probably seizures and they got an appointment for an EEG with the neurologists office next Monday.
The pediatrician prescribed Tamiflu for the entire family to try to ward off the rest of the family from getting the flu and to hopefully shorten Julian’s time with it. Last night at 9:30pm Julian had a full on seizure - where his body was jerking all over and he was disoriented and confused and crying but did not lose consciousness. His mother is going to call the doctors this morning to update them and see if they have any recommendations.
Please, please say a prayer, or 2 for this poor little boy. His baby brother was born on his birthday, which they just celebrated. Julian turned 5, his brother is 1.
