Bloody Hospital. We've waited 8 weeks for an appointment (okay so Winchester did arrange a private EEG in between) and now they've rung and cancelled as the Doctor has phoned in sick. They've given her 20th October as the next date.

I had a call from our childminder saying Olivia was in the buggy coming back from school and suddenly her head went back and she was like she was in deep sleep. She lifted her arms and they were all floppy and tried to wake her but couldn't. She said she checked to make sure she was breathing and after 3 minutes she suddenly sat up and was wide awake.

I phoned the Paediatrician and he said it definately wouldn't be related to her new medicine but is another type of seizure. I asked if we just sit back and wait for her to come around like the others and he said yes.

He said he's sorry but there is nothing more they can do at the moment as they have to wait to see if the new drug is going to work and that'll be weeks yet.

I'm just so annoyed at Southampton. It would have been a perfect day to have an EEG as she's having seizures. Her speech still isn't properly back to normal from the funny goings on the other day yet either.

Hey ho! We're serioulsly worrying her seizures are getting worse as they seem to be changing all the time.
