Michael had a Grand Mal seizure, also known as a tonic-clonic seizure. It was rather frightening. Even with all of my own education about it, the experience is entirely different when it is your own child. He stopped breathing for 3-4 minutes turning completely blue. A full blown seizure in every way. Michael took quite a while to come back around to the point of awareness of everything. We are still seeing some deficits as a result of this seizure including weakness, tripping, and falling etc. Michael slept quite a lot the next day, even at the neurologists office. Michael has had other seizures which have been smaller and are classified as simple partial seizures or complex partial seizures since September.
Please keep Michael in your prayers.
