Purple Day

The Martens Family on Purple Day









Isn't that a contagious grin on his face? Mason loves having his picture taken. 

We all wore purple! (Daryl's shirt looks black, but actually is a dark purple). Although Mason is clueless about Epilepsy, he does know when he's having a seizure and can say it... sort of. So, even he has a sense of awareness about Epilepsy. 

He had a rough night Tuesday night. Throwing up. He gives no warning, it just happens. Messy. He stayed home from school on Wednesday and lay on the couch all day. Because I needed to watch him closely, so did I. he was also very clingy and cuddly. The stress of being sick added a bunch of seizures to his day as well. The risk with him being sick is a fever. That kick-starts non-convulsive status. That just means he starts seizing and it doesn't stop. Thankfully Advil liquid (not the pill) works. Pray that it does keep working! Otherwise it means a trip to the hospital in an ambulance, and Mason doesn't really care for those.

He perked up Wednesday at supper time. Ate like a horse, making up for the rest of the day! Thursday back to regular and off to school. :) Happy mommy!
