Rock Stars

We had some friends over with us for New Years and I think we have a couple rock stars on our hands!

Blessings

I have been debating on if I should post this, I dont like sharing these extremly personal experiences, but I felt that I wanted to remember what happened this night was for us.

I just wanted to share an experience we had with Tory. You all know that we have had problems with Tory and her breatholding / seizures. Well they have been gradually slowing down, always there, just not as severe. So we have been breathing a little easier hoping that she has finally started to grow out of them. On Christmas Eve we had a huge scare with her, she went into one of her breath holding spells which is usually followed by her body going rigid and her being unresponsive, ect... It is hard to explain withoug actually seeing it. Anyways Tory did not come out of this spell. She was completly un responsive to sound, smell, touch anything. Jeff, my Dad, Grandpa Luthy and Blake were all there to give her a blessing. Within a few minutes we decided it was time to take her to the hospital, which was not easy to do since we were at my parents and Idaho Falls Hospital is a 40 minute drive on icy roads with Tory so stiff she could not fit into her car seat. When we made it to the car the frigid air temperatures in Idaho must have jolted her back to reality. She came out of it acting normal but extremly tired of course.

The reason I tell this story, is because I fully believe that without the prayers given and the blessing Tory recieved she may not have come out of it. Me and Jeff fully thought we had lost our little girl that night. I completly believe Heavenly Father was there helping to protect Tory's mind through this episode and to guide us to make the right decisions. I just wanted to experess my love and humilty through this.

We are still struggling to find answers to help her and are still hitting road block after road block with her. Doctors dont seem to want to take an interest in her / dont know what to do. Right now we are waiting to hear back from the neurologist to see if he has any suggestions, but it did not sound likely. So we are back to waiting for her to grow out of it and if this happens again luckly we have a hospital just down the street.

Thanks for all your prayers for out little Tory. If she is like this as a baby can you imagine her as a teenager!
