Lucas needs your prayers

Today Lucas had a seizure. It's never happened before, so we didn't really know what to do. After calling our pediatrician, Esther raced off to Children's Hospital and I left work to meet her there. When I got to the hospital, his seizure was still going on - but stopped soon after the doctor's gave him medicine. They say that it was a partial seizure - because it was only his hand and foot that were twitching and Lucas was awake through it and alert through most of it, but they're still not sure why it happened. As of this evening, Lucas is back to his normal joyful self, but the doctors decided to admit him for observation. From what we heard, if he does well overnight then he can come home tomorrow. Esther is staying overnight with him at the hospital, so please pray that they will both get good rest and that everything will go really well so that they can come home tomorrow.

Thanks,
Marc
