Finnian is in PICU

Our lad Finnian went into seizure status on friday morning September 27th. We tries to stop the seizures at home but were unable to. We took him to the ER and they tried to stop them with Atavian but it didn't work. He had an X ray of his chest and a Cat Scan of his head. The X ray showed that the top lobe in his right lung had collapsed due to aspiration pneunomia. They addmitted him to the PEds Intensive Care unit where they had to put in a breathing tube.
They finally got the seizures to stop with IV meds he is also in IV meds for the pneumonia the tube is still in we hope to be home in a few days.

September update

The kids all started school. Eoghan and Maura walk around the corner and Finnian and his nurse take a yellow school bus to school.
Eoghan is doing good in school and Maura is doing good too. But our Finnian is learning to ride a tricycle and walk with a walker.
Look in our pictures and you will see pics of the kids on their first day at school.
