We just got home a little bit ago-big sigh of relief. We didn't get leaving as early as we wanted this morning because trying to get a urine sample from a 2 year old is not easy. Needless to say we gave up & are going to do it in Fargo & have it sent there because Lincoln was very hungry and we didn't want to get him too far off of his medication schedule.
The trip home was not so fun. On Monday night I did not feel too good and of course since I was sleeping in Lincoln's bed with him he ended up getting it...today in the car. So the car could use an air freshener to get rid of the vomit smell-not so pleasant. We had pulled over in Albertville so we could take his temperature and ended up sitting in a parking lot there for a while waiting to make sure he wasn't going to keep throwing up. Not that there was much in his system to throw up since he couldn't eat breakfast & by the time we could feed him he was starting to feel icky. We decided to stop at my Dad & Mom's because the pregnant lady had to go to the bathroom. Lincoln threw up right before we pulled up to their house. As soon as Josh carried him inside he said he wanted to "play with the balls"-he knows exactly where they are at Grandma's house. We had been trying to get him to eat something & he kept on telling us that he didn't like anything that we offered him. However, as soon as Grandpa offered him some crackers he was more than happy to eat. So he finally ate and we could slowly see the color returning to his skin & the sparkle coming back in his eyes. He played for a little bit at Grandpa & Grandma's (including asking Grandpa to do the cuckoo clock) and after that the drive went much better. Usually the drive from Fergus to Fargo seems to take forever, but tonight it seemed to fly by. Thank you for Grandpa & Grandma's!
Lincoln is very happy to be home playing with his toys again. We have a check up with the neurologist here next Tuesday. Until then we just keep an eye on him and hope & pray that the medicine continues to help the seizures improve.
