Up until this morning he had only had a few small seizures while sleeping. But I was on the phone with him and he just disappeared, I could hear sounds and some moaning and I knew right away what was happening. He was having a seizure. I looked at the clock and just kept calling his name, no response. I did this for five full minutes, finally he answered but he wasn't really coherent. I kept telling him to push his button to get the nurse and all he would do was repeat what I said and he kept saying push the nurses button, push the nurses but, hmmm, push the nurses button.
He finally started talking normally and I told him he had a seizure and he still didn't understand what I was saying so I told him I loved him and I'd talk to him later and I hung up. Then I called the nurses desk. I told them what I had heard on the phone and told her it was at least a full five minutes and he still hadn't been coherent and would someone please go check on him.
They are supposed to be watching him 24/7 on the video but no one was sitting there watching! That kind of upset me a little. I'm hoping they go back and review the tapes when no one has been watching
Later I called him on my way home from work and he asked me to tell the nurse and I did and she said well whoever took the phone call would have written it down but they would go and review his tapes.
Now the bad part is that the activity that he's had so far has all been on he left side of his brain. When he went thru this before and they did brain surgery it was all o his right side. I hoped it was still there and they just hadn't taken enough brain cells and tissue. Now it appears as though another part of his brain is now affected when it wasn't before.So what does all this mean? I'm much ore worried now than I was.
Please keep him in all of your prayers everyone! Thanks!
So sorry, QM........that had to be a really long 5 minutes.........we will be praying for you all!!!!!!!!
