Default Your my rock!!! I am really flustered tonight

Hello, they say when things are going good. Sometimes its just too good.
That must be what happened in my life today.

About 9:15 am I received a phone call from Derrick about him having
a Seizure. I picked him up at 10:00 am, it took me a while to get
to him. Well I did as you know.

I was headed home, and at the gas station we had stopped for a pop.
I didn't get it when he was telling me not only was the left side numb,
which is not unusual. But so was the right side going by the time
we got home. And his back. Then came the part I've never heard
before.

Mom, how long will this hurt. I asked what he meant. He told me
it was hurting everywhere. So we headed start to the hospital
and spent about 3 hours and 1/2 there. His dilanitin was sub zero
low. I am not sure but that doesn't sound good to me.

He got IV dilantin and pills both. Now I'm a little upset they didn't
write the amounts down for me. I expected it to be on the
paperwork. I had to go get something to eat, my diabetes was
acting up.

I'm so sorry to hear about this episode, Donna. Poor Derrick! I wonder how his levels got so low.

How is he doing now?

I will be in the air all of tomorrow so might not reply, but will get back online possibly over the weekend. Meanwhile, I send him well wishes. And you, of course.

That is the question. I've never heard it be so low. I will be calling
the neurologist tomorrow. I hope he gets the results fast.

Thanks Ladies

So do I. I've had a pretty good run without getting these things.
But it is here for now. So we will see.
