So I attempted to vlog this but truth be told, it’s too hard for me. Tomorrow we are on our way to Salt Lake City to take Myles to Primary Children’s for a visit with a Neurologist. I will be honest. When I first heard that word on Monday, I was panicked. The last thing you want to hear in regards to your children are terms like Neurologist and Cardiologist or how about seizures. They just have to be wrong!

Over and over I keep running the episodes in my head. Was I wrong? Did I just see something that really wasn’t there? Even though Myles was born five weeks early, he has surpassed everyone’s expectations. So why now? 2 weeks ago, we were at a church function. I was walking around holding him upright in my arms. When I looked down, my heart dropped. His lips had a blue tint to them. Immediately I thought, “No it’s just the lighting.”  I asked a couple friends. The first friend said she noticed it as well. By the time the second friend looked, it was gone.

Here it was a Friday and I thought that it was just a sign of his heart issues. It didn’t last more than seconds so I put it off. Over the weekend, it didn’t happen again. When I arrived in Park City on Thursday I wanted to give him a bath. When I brought him to the bench to dress him, I noticed it again. This time his arms and legs were stiff and extended. Similar to when a baby is startled. Once again it lasted seconds. It didn’t happen again all weekend but this time I called and we got him an appointment Monday. I wasn’t prepared to hear what the pediatrician said next. He didn’t believe this was part of the heart problem. He feels that Myles could possibly be having seizures.

Seizures?? Not my son! So here we are. Waiting to see a specialist. I’m praying for good news. That’s all I can do right? I also wonder what other hurdles we will be overcoming  with this little guy.
