Prayers Needed for My Grandson, Alex
My daughter Erin just called about a half hour ago, and a couple of times since then.
My grandson Alex went on a short vacation with his friend to Iowa (we live in Wisconsin). Connor's grandfather has a plane and flew them down. Tonight, after swimming all day, fishing, and having a lot of fun, they were watching fireworks. Alex (11) suddenly fell to the ground, and was having a seizure. There were two nurses with the family, 911 was called, and he was taken to the hospital via ambulance. He is now responsive, but groggy (normal after a seizure).
I think, but we cannot be certain, that this MAY be dehydration ( this is my gut reaction from a distance... ).
They are doing a CT Scan and chest Xrays. He got sick to his stomach in the Xray dep't, they asked him what he had eaten and had to drink all day, and he had not had much to drink. He remembered one can of soda. They have now started IV's, and he seems to be improving. Erin was finally able to talk to him, he asked her if she is upset with him; she said no, just very worried, and not liking the fact that she is so far away from him...
Please pray for Alex, that it is nothing serious. The hospital and his friend's family will be calling with updates through the night.
They have no insurance. This is not Erin's worry right now, but... it is also a factor.
