I cant even begin to imagine what it must be like having to deal with these seizures but I can relate to your feelings about being overly protective. I think you're probably calmer on the outside that you believe to be and that your instincts to insist on giving her Tylenol when she feels warm is spot on.cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03889400852860660437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4870220321385230390.post-79811362524184011712011-02-05T19:53:55.610-05:002011-02-05T19:53:55.610-05:00It's not a fun feeling, I've been there an...It's not a fun feeling, I've been there and still worry when Jillian is under the weather. She hasn't had any in almost 2 years. In fact, she doesn't even really get fevers anymore. Keep up the meds and hopefully she will pull through this one just fine.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08446068595456304072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4870220321385230390.post-79219920847476230672011-02-02T03:42:14.838-05:002011-02-02T03:42:14.838-05:00I had febrile seizures until I was 3 or 4.

I wouldn't complain or pull at my ears. Hang in there.

I can't wait till Francesco is 5 (5 months to go)just to have a little bit of the weight of that worry gone (because I don't think it will go all the way away). <br />I do the Tylenol/Ibuprofen thing too. I also try to pump him full of liquids and occasionally if I am desperate a tepid bath (which never goes over well).Carahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08547213725995448861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4870220321385230390.post-57382202388238414762011-02-01T16:45:56.244-05:002011-02-01T16:45:56.244-05:00I hope she feels 100% really soon!

I would have to rush her to the ER or into the docs, all for them to tell me it's viral, it will go away. In Oct I put my foot down and said do something about this. We found out she has a medical issue but I'm so glad I put my foot down. We found out she has urinary reflux which can but not always causes UTI's. She has had 3. I think now being a mom, I worry about everything with my kids. I hate having to watch my little girl not feel well with fevers:(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4870220321385230390.post-23101412573592839362011-02-01T08:53:08.188-05:002011-02-01T08:53:08.188-05:00Jessie, I think some people have an ability to rem...Jessie, I think some people have an ability to remain calm and rational throughout most anything. I am NOT one of those people, and maybe neither are you. As long as you're not still chasing Ruby around with a medicine bottle at 18, you're going to be just fine. :) ♥ you mama!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06898038983377436143noreply@blogger.com
