Could everyone say a little prayer for a friend's daughter. She is about 8 months old, has DS. In the last couple of months little one has been diagnosed as having seizures which even with hospitalization, the docs can't seem to get a handle on. While in the hospital, she picked up rotavirus. Most recently she is having problems keeping her blood sugars up, isn't eating and barely even drinking even Pedialyte. She also broke out with petechiae over her entire body over the weekend and once again the docs are at a loss as to why. They are apparently thinking that she may have some type of clotting deficiency and it's going to take a lot of blood work to figure this puzzle out.
It just breaks my heart to hear about all the problems this little pumpkin is having!
Thanks so much!

My prayers are sent to the little pumpkin as well. Sounds like she's going to be more like a little pin cushion though! Prayers to her mom as I'm sure she must be a wreck! Please keep us posted!

Just wanted to post an update on my little friend.....
She is home and (knock on wood!!!) doing well. Doc's never did figure out what is going on with her as far as the petechial hemorrhages go, they did rule out any serious clotting deficiencies so that was good news. Seems that they may well have found something to decrease the frequency and severity of her seizures too! More good news there! And she is acting more like her usual little self - lots of smiling and babbling! Still more good news!!!
Thanks to all who sent their prayers for this little pumpkin!

I understand exactly how she feels, we spent a week in the hospital with my youngest when she was 8 months old because of the seizures. Both of my girls have seizures, including my daughter with DS. Please feel free to give your friend my email address, I know a few parents who have kids with DS and seizures.
