Breathing again...

Alicia had us all holding our breath over the last week or so. We had a trip to the emergency room last Friday, followed by a trip to urgent care on Wednesday, and a trip to the pediatrician this morning. All of this, to learn that our little sweetie has breath-holding spells. This is when a child gets very upset and stops breathing until they pass out. It is not dangerous, but it was scary to watch her little eyes roll back in her head and her whole body go limp! We saw two spells this past week, and will probably continue to see them occasionally over the next few years. This is pretty uncommon, only a small percentage of children have it, but I think that it is the worst for the parents. It's not something that we are looking forward to getting used to, but it looks like we probably will anyway.
