Adventures with Dillon!

So most everyone knows about Dillon. If you don't you will find out. Dillon had surgery on the 7th of December. Everything went good (so we thought), he came home on Wednesday. By Sunday we started getting a little worried. He couldn't keep anything down. So meds were not an option. Tuesday he started having numbness on his left side, that started to move to his right side. He was walking funny, his hands wouldn't work right and had really bad headaches. He went to the ER in Logan (as ordered by the Doc that did the surgery) around 11:30am. He was back home at 6:00pm. We had no news on what the problem was.
At 12:15 am on Wednesday I woke to him screaming my name, only to find him on the floor seizing. Katie called 911 and the EMT's Dusty works with came to help. Ironically he was on call, just not as an EMT, that night. They all thought he was first on scene. He was then taken to the hospital again. Came home at 4:00am and we were told he could do it again. At around 7:00am Dillon yelled out "Mom it's starting again." Dusty who was headed out the door for work. Ran to help Katie. Again 911 was called. Dillon was being very strong and grown up. He told Katie not to cry, that he would be ok, don't cry. We got the same EMT's and Paramedics as earlier. Dusty is still on call at this point and still not as an EMT.
All the EMT's and Paramedics were very confused about the fact that Dillon was talking to use through the seizures. He was telling us where it was starting and where it was moving to. It was very strange. Confused everyone even the Docs.
Dillon was taken to the hospital again. At around 3:00 pm he was transported to Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City. The same Paramedics took Dillon to Salt Lake City. There more of the same tests were done and some new ones. It was found the Dillon had a blood clot that went from the nostril, area up his skull around the back of his head and splits going to both ears.
Dillon came home From PCH on Sunday Dec. 20 2009. He came home with a "Seizure Action Plan" and more meds, including a shot twice a day and seizure pills. So far things are good. He can go back to school on the 11th of January. But still has to take it slow, not too much excitement or over stimulation. He should get off the meds in about six months and be able to drive a few months later.
I am sure glad that mu hubby and sister understand the words the Docs use. Because I sure don't!
All and all Katie, Dillon and Eli spent about a week and a half in the Hostital. Me, I got the other kids and Dusty, he had class. We took the kids to our Christmas patries (for the Hooton side) and tried to make things as fun as possible for them. It was a very scary thing to go through and I hope I never have to again!
