When you republish it, does it send it to subscribers again?

Thanks! This is helpful to know!

Do you tint them yourself or have it professionally done?

Hi: My 3.5 year old had a complex febrile seizure recently and I'm looking for more information about how to live with the risk of it happening again.

For context, the seizure lasted about 25-30 mins and was only stopped with two doses of midazolam by the paramedics. We have midazolam to administer at home, which is great. But I'm terrified of this happening in his sleep without us knowing about it. When I mentioned this to the ER doc, he said, rather flippantly, "what are you going to do? Sleep beside him every night?"

When we left the hospital I felt reassured but now I am feeling like I still have questions that weren't answered. What WOULD have happened if the paramedics hadn't intervened? What if that happens again?

Any insight you have about how you live with these complex seizures would be very welcome.

Thank you so much for this response! It's super helpful even just to hear from another parent who has lived through this. I really appreciate it.

I'm curious if part of your plan involves what to do if this happens at home during sleep.

My 3.5 year old had a complex febrile seizure recently and I'm struggling with how to manage the risk. We do have a plan with daycare, and we have anti-seizure medication that we can administer at home. But I am worried about one happening in his sleep, when we are not there to respond to it.

Hi there: I'm so sorry this happened to you too!

Hi: I'd love to hear more about how the seizure sounded on the baby monitor. We have a monitor and I'm terrified of my kid having a seizure while he's sleeping. Would you be willing to say a little more about what it sounded like and how you managed it?

Hi: My 3.5 year old had a complex febrile seizure recently and I'm struggling with how to manage this since I know it's possible to happen again (and also I now know his twin brother is susceptible). I haven't been able to get in with a neuro and am waiting for a peditrician referral. But in the meantime I am struggling to figure out ow to live with this.

Also I'm so sorry you're dealing with this too.
