Under the weather

Laura's been under the weather today. She had two seizures yesterday, one at school in the afternoon (2-3 minutes) and a shorter one at home in the evening. She had a slight temp later in the evening although it seemed to settle and she slept through until 6am.

This morning she seemed OK at first but then vomited up her entire feed (300ml of milky liquid - YUK) all over herself and her armchair. It looks as though she has a sore throat as she is reluctant to swallow any water or even her saliva. So I have been giving her nurofen all day and that seems to help.

Laura had a good stay at Rainbows although ended up in the cube bed after the first night when she was found on the window sill!! She enjoyed playing in the paddling pool whilst there and had swimming at school on Wednesday and Thursday.

The weather has been lovely this week, very sunny, in the mid 20s, so I think the heat may have affected Laura as the carers at Rainbows said she was very tired at the end of each day.
