Gerald Jr. had another seizure yesterday. Once again I had him trying to get him to sleep. I don’t know if I can take it if it happens with me again. This time his face started twitching and he turned an ashen color. It was very scary. We took him to the ER again, and they said it was another Febrile Seizure. It’s still scary, even if it is only a febrile seizure. They said if it happens again, just let him have the seizure; don’t try to awaken him from it. That is going to be hard. Please pray his seizures will stop.
Thanks!!!
Thanks!!!

Praying for Gerald Jr. Is he better now?

Hey Gera, sorry to hear about Gerald Jr. again. Have you guys tried giving him a luke warm (or room temp) bath when he has a fever. My kids will fight me before they take tylnol or motrin. I try that before the meds. Also popcycle work wonders. Here is a website about the seizures.

Oh, dear! Ya'll have really been through it!! Caleb had a seizure once when we were at church ( after the service ). He was only about 2 and that really scared Momms. I also had a seizure/seizures when I was a baby due to being sick.
I hope he gets better soon!
Laura,
Yes he is doing much better now. Thanks for your prayers!
Aunt Brandy,
No, we didn't try a luke warm bath. I'll tell Mom about it.
Courtney,
Oh! So you have been through this too! So you know how scary it was. Thanks for your prayers!
Gera
