pics from zach's hospitalization

After five seizures in 26 hrs, Zach's workup all came back normal... brain CT, blood work, EEG etc. He was given seizure medication to take for the next couple years to prevent any future occurrences. There was no sign of fever or infection, and Zach's diagnosis was given as "Idiopathic Seizures", cause unknown. Thank you for all your prayers! God is good all the time, and all the time God is good!

In the hospital, for some reason, after Zach got his IV, they gave us a wheel chair. Maybe they felt the parents needed it?? We probably did.

Zach hated his IV and there wasn't much slack, so we had to keep him calm. That was no easy task and eventually the IV stopped working due to all Zach's pulling and moving. He usually sucks his right fist too, but with his hand all bandaged over his IV, he kept trying but no success. Poor guy, he screamed a lot.

Going in for his Brain CT

The next morning. Zach was still very unhappy about his IV.

Our hospital beds. We actually had a great nights sleep in between the times we were up. Thank you for your prayers!
