What a day!
Larry had a bit of a rough night last night, and then had a small seizure in OT.
We had just gotten his splint on, and his OT was getting his worktable. Larry was working on getting his fingers to move when his hand started to twitch. He said "My hand is twitching", and he sounded a bit panicked. I had that splint off in record time, and had him lie down. It only lasted a few seconds, and was only in his arm - but was definitely a seizure.
Freaked out his OT a bit, that's for sure. We had him lie down for a bit, and then his PT let him know that no more therapy for him today.
They actually had him go up to his room in his wheelchair, and he couldn't even drive... just ride along. They took his BP (fine), and then gave him an ativan just in case.
So, Larry took it easy and rested all day. I stayed with him. The doctor on that day added some extra dilantin, which made Larry very tired.
