So yesterday morning my mom, stepdad, and me went to go and see War of The Worlds. . . .we are sitting in the movie theatre maybe like half way through the movie when my stepdad (who is sitting between me and my mom) elbows me and dropps his keys, I look over at him (Thinking wtf? you know?) and his head is all slumped over. and it sounded like he was snoring, so me and my mom shook him awake, he was like "oh whats, oh sorry, I'm fine, I'm fine" so me and my mom are like "do we need to go?" and he's like "no no I'm fine i'm fine" . . . .well like twenty minutes later he elbows me again (because his arm was all tightening up and stuff). . .so I look over and me and my mom are shaking him awake, I'm telling my mom "we NEED to leave NOW" and we get him awake and we are leaving and my step dads like "why are we leaveing " like he didn't know that he had just passed out twice! . . .so we are in the loby of the movie theatre and he's like "I have to go to the bathroom" so me and my mom are in the ladies bathroom, and my mom tells me that we are just going to go to the first hospital we see, because there isn't a movie theatre in the town we live in we had to drive like twenty minutes away. So we leave the movie theatre and my step dad is complaining the whole time "I don't see why we can't just drive back the the base and go to the hospital there" . . .so anyways we are at the hospital in the town that the movie theatre was in. and we were there for like four freaking hours! and they just ran some tests and everything was normal. so we drive home, FOUR HOURS LATER! and we are home like five minutes, and we hadn't eaten all day, so my mom went up stairs to put her pajamas on and I was in the kitchen starting to make me a sandwich and my stepdad is on the sofa. I'm still holding the mayo in my hand and I kinda glance into the living room to ask him if he wants me to make him something to eat becuase he was all tired from what had happend earlier I thought he had his head resting on the back of the couch, again this was just a glance, but then when I decided not to ask him becuase he was tired. But then I realized that his mouth was open so I ran back in there and his legs were all stretched out and his arms were all tight at his sides and his mouth was open and his eyes were closed and his muscles were all tense so I hollered for my mom and she came running downstairs as I was waking him up. So my mom ended up calling an abulance and we had to drive all the way back to the hospital in the town with the movie theatre (because its a good one) and now my step dad is in the hospital, and thank god he hasn't had another episode, but they don't know what is wrong with him and they are doing a bunch of tests and I'm really worried and I know that this is really long, but I just needed to get it all out. Thanks.

Hope he feels better.

me too! he's like "oh i'm fine, I wanna go home, I don't want to be here in the hospital" and all that kinda junk . . . .but I'm scared that what if we get him home and it like happens in his sleep or something?. . . . .

What did they say was wrong with him?

They don't know, all the tests that they've done say that everything is as it should be. . . . . but he's still there tonight and I hope they find something soon.

Oh my god. That's so scary. I'm sorry. I hope he'll be ok.

Thank you guys, I'm sorry I'm just like "blah personal life!" on you but I just needed to get it out, and all of my friends from washington are out doing family stuff for the fourth and whatnot. . .so I can't get ahold of them and junk. . . .and my sisters aren't being much of a help and all.

It's perfectly understandable. Sometimes you just need an outlet to vent about these things. Especially since you don't have a lot of people to talk to in Tennessee. We're your .net family! Feel free to talk to us anytime.

:D

How scary. I hope they find out what's wrong and are able to fix it soon.

me too. . . . . . esspecially scince I'm stuck at home today taking phone calls and telling people that everything is fine, and its just the same as yesterday.

Sorry I'm late but I didn't have internet access..What's the latest on his condition? It sounds almost like some kind of epileptic episode or something..That must have been so scary for you guys..I hope everything is fine..

And don't think twice about spewing personal stuff on here..You know that we all care and will offer as much support as we possibly can..:D

Yea, they are thinking that maybe he has epilepsi (sp?) But they don't know for sure. There's really no new news, he's back at home and he can't go to work for a week . . . . .but he's doing fine, he keeps complaining that this is "his maine" beucase my mom was in and out of the hospital when we were living in maine but other than that he's just back to normal and stuff.

That's good to hear..
