The Gossip Game Chapter 2

Another chapter, yay! I had to go back and reread all of Hiding to figure out if Kakashi knew about Genma's job as I was writing this...arg! And I explained the gossip bit from "Hiding", since I was asked about the reasoning there. :)

Dustin... *sighs*

My son Dusty had another seizure tonight. They're so scary. At first they had told us we only had to bring him to the hospital if they lasted longer than a certain amount of time and such, but since he doesn't start breathing again on his own sometimes after them and he had that one that last 40 minutes last year... we have to take him in every time now.

This time my husband had just gone to buy milk when it started. I had to give Dustin a syringe of rectal Valium gel and call 911, and hubby got home not long before the ambulance got there. Thankfully tonight there weren't any complications, and the seizure only lasted about seven minutes, and he started breathing again without intervention this time. The most recent one before this (in February) had him in the ICU all weekend, so I was happy they wound up not keeping him this time.

Still, I'm so nervous. My poor little boy. He's going to be 2 years old in May, and he's been having seizures off and on since he was 10 months old or so. I wish we knew WHY, but they aren't just febrile seizures (because he doesn't always have a fever) but they haven't diagnosed it as anything else yet either. I'm so stressed out tonight. He's sleeping quietly now, and it's midnight, and I should sleep, but I'm not ready yet. So I'm trying to relax.
