Has this gotten to the tri med boards? Fwd'd for Cindy Cook...
     It is Cindy Cook.  I received a call from Jayne tonight.  Nicholas
had
a bad seizure and was having trouble breathing.  His sats were in the
60s
for some time.  They took him to the ER and his sats went down to as
low as
7.  He was intubated and was being transferred (by helicopter I
thought
Jayne said) to St. Francis in Peoria (I hope I have that name right). 
Mark
and Jayne were on the way to meet him.   His blood counts were all off
also.
White blood cells were very high and  they fear he may have aspirated. 
 I
told her to call me when she could once she got to the hospital.   That
was
several hours ago and I have not heard back from her yet.  I just
wanted her
friends to know because they need your prayers.  Could you please send
this
to the on line group.  Mark said that prior to all of this Nicholas was
fine
all day.

    Jayne just called.  Nick went into cardiac arrest last night in the
ICU.
They did not have to use paddles and were able to get his heart beat
back
quickly.  They think his meds at the time caused it.  He was on a high
dose
of Dylantin.  They are giving him his Topamax now.  He is stable now. 
They
had to put a central line in his groin area.  His lungs sound wet,
although
they are getting stuff out.  I think that is it...........She sounds
ok-worried obviously, but ok.

  I spoke to Jayne twice today.  They are going to do an EEG to see
what his
brain activity is like.  They fear he may have suffered damage.  He
does
open his eyes to Marks voice at times and will raise his arm in protest
of
having his mouth swabbed.    They have turned the vent down and he is
breathing small breaths above the vent.  Jayne was pretty upset last
night
because she and Mark were given the "DNR talk".  They are taking things
one
step at a time and making decisions as they come.  Keep your prayers
coming.
