Not such a light-hearted Blog entry this time, but last night was a very scary time for my partner and I.
Our 1yr old son woke up from an afternoon nap with a high temperature and shortly after went into a convolsion. We called an ambulance and took him into the Children's A&E - although we feared the worst and paniced, it was quite reassuring to be told that the turn our Son suffered was common in babies who are overheated.
His temperature was brought to normal and we took him home. Today we have been monitoring him with a thermometer and following our GPs advice by giving him Calpol.
His temperature has stabilized and hopefully he should be back to his bouncing-self in a few days.
I thank God that he is alright - something like this clearly puts things into perspective, especially when only a couple days ago my greatest worry was where I would be spending New Years Eve. I now know the answer to that dialema , it will be at the best venue - at home with my family.
