Our son was born on Thursday with some complications from a c-section delivery and spent his first few days in the Special Care Unit while on oxygen and undergoing some extra testing and blood work to figure out what was going on. He had been doing great and was expected to be released from special care as long as his platelet test was back to normal. Saturday night, the pediatrician notified us that his oxygen saturation had dipped suddenly and the Special Care Unit nurse on duty spotted what she believed to be a seizure-like episode. She immediately called the doctor for help and they arranged transport to Dayton Children's Hospital just as soon as the mobile NICU team could be dispatched. He ended up having four seizures before arriving at Dayton Children's and they were increasing in duration. They put him on phenobarbital and got the seizures under control. Once he arrived at Dayton Children's they began a "rule out" process and started testing for anything and everything they could. They started him on a full course of antibiotics and antivirals as a "just in case". Twenty-four hours later one of his blood cultures came back with a positive for a virus. We were just "lucky." Our nurse practitioner who broke the news to us informed us that had our baby not been transferred when he was, he probably would not be alive today. She said the staff at Upper Valley Medical Center responded perfectly to the situation and she told us that whoever caught the seizure saved his life. It is because of Amy's attentiveness and being able to differentiate between a seizure and jitters, especially considering that his seizures occurred while he was crying. His brain had some damage but the neurologists described it as small and probably mild. Had his seizures not been noticed, his quality of life may have been greatly affected. We are forever grateful for Amy's actions and would love to see her recognized for them. It is even more fitting because three weeks prior to delivery we went in to get checked out due to low kick counts and Amy was our nurse then as well. She treated us well then too.
