Baby's name is Porter Russell Schow and he is at Primary Children's Hospital where he was taken by life flight crew Saturday evening. He has had consistent seizures since he was born weighing 7 lbs 11 oz. Abby is pretty sure the seizures started two days before he was born. They are running many tests but so far everything is normal except the EEG, which shows abnormal brain waves due to possible oxygen deprivation in the womb. Abby gave birth by c-section so any problem would have taken place before. Maybe cord problem? We don't know. Everything was perfectly normal. His body is perfect- his Apgar score at birth was 8 out of 10. We are just really surprised and shocked. We were all at Primary Children's Sunday afternoon to offer love through words and touch. His seizures continue, even on anti-seizure meds. He is hooked up to so much stuff you can barely see his body, but we can feel his sweet spirit. Prayers are appreciated-and we thank and love all of you!
Love,
Cindy
