That scare!
Luc and I went to bed about 10:30PM and about 2:00AM his cries of pain woke me up. He was seating on the bed grabbing his head with both hands and crying. "I got a headache, is breaking my head inside" he told me. I jump to the intercom and shouted for help. Uncle Robert, his Mum and the nurse rush in. Uncle was trying for him to explained what he was feeling but he was just crying and telling him that hurts lots. Uncle was on the phone with his neurosurgeon after call an ambulance. He instructed uncle to take him to the hospital immediately for an MRI and send him the results as soon as he got them. Then Luc start to throw out all he has in his stomach and lost consciousness. Uncle moved him to the side and made sure his respiratory ways were not obstructed. At that moment the paramedics were entering the bedroom and took charge under uncle directions. He instructed them to take him right away in the ambulance and take his vitals in the way to the hospital and as soon as they arrive to go straight for an MRI , they did just that because uncle identified him self as a Doctor.
Luc recovery of consciousness when they were moving him to the stretcher and start to cry grabbing his head. "Please uncle it hurts." "I know son but I do not want to give you nothing until I got the MRI results. I have to be sure what is going on inside your head to be able to prescribe you the right medication. Hold on tight, we will be at the Hospital in no time. I will ride with you and will be with you all the time." He ask for his Mum, "I`m here honey" she answered him and then for me. He ask uncle to talk to my Dad to allow me to go with him. My parents were in the bedroom and my Dad ask me with his eyes, "I`m fine Dad. I want to go.", "Ok. You ride with us. Andy will be there with you Lucas." he answered. Luc extend his arm for me to approach to him and hugged me crying and telling me "Hurts Dy.....is killing me", I start kissing him and passing my hand over his head "You`ll be fine Luc. You know uncle is here besides I am praying, you know God is with us. They have to take you to the ambulance, I`ll be there. We will go behind the ambulance." I was crush and a half inside.
We get in like 15 minutes to the Hospital and they took him straight to the MRI room. We went to a waiting room by his room. Here in Spain there are private Clinics that if you are a patient of one of the Doctors working in it, you does not have to wait, or something like that. I am not absolutely sure. Luc`s neurosurgeon and pediatrician work in this Clinic and have all his medical records and all that. Of all of us actually. Few minutes later his Doctors rush in and was better because uncle was not have to send them the results. Thanks God Luc just have a bad migraine. A nurse came in the room and injected him a painkiller through the drip he have in his arm and Luc pass out sleep in about 3 minutes. I am not sleepy at all, I was just by his side all the time holding his hand. His Doctors told to his Mum and Uncle that they want to keep him for the rest of the day and that he will be back home later today. Uncle, his Mum, my Mum and me, will stay here. The MRI did not show anything wrong. Then, where that migraine came from? I do not know but I will find out later today. I have the suspicion that Luc`s exam today at sea, have to do something with this migraine.
Well, another one for Luc. But I think this one will not be more than this. I think it was just an scare.
Later. I need something to eat. Yes I know, I am always hungry. Sou?

Andy,
OMG!!!! That was such a scare. I am so glad it turned out well, although a migraine headache is not so well. Thank you for sharing it with us and keeping us informed. God continues to watch over His children. Luc is so close to God in his everyday life. What awesome love you two share. God doesn't allow awful things to happen to a beloved child of His without giving him someone to help him through it. And, in your case, a beautiful, loving angel! Awesome, just plain ole' normal awesome!!
mi amor,
Pa
Hi Andy
My heart is deeply sad about this latest drama in Luc's health, and it must be having a devastating effect upon him and all concerned. I have a theory that the metal plate inside his head is sensitive to temperature changes, and the temperature of the sea water may have triggered this latest migraine attack. Of course it could be a number of other things but the coincidence ties in with the sea exam, and Luc may want to use a padded skullcap to protect that area in future swims. Please give him a nice big bear hug, and convey my best wishes.
On the subject about emoticon in blogs, type ' how to use emoticon in bloggers blog ' in your url. There are a host of useful tips to guide you on your way. Have a nice day my friend.
Yes Pa was scary but is all good now. We are came back home few minutes ago. They are searching for the cause of that migraine. Thanks.
@Vic. Vic the metal plate WAS in his head and when they discover the blood blister the neurosurgeon took the chance and removed. They ask Luc if he decompressed properly in his way out and he answered yes. They are looking for the cause.
On the emoticon subjet, I did just that and try like 9 different ways changing the HTLM blog code and nothing works for me. I did it few times just in case I did something wrong (which I think I did because for other people works) but does not work for me. Thanks Vic.
