A girlfriend of mine does rubbing before her son goes to sleep. Sort of like

joint compressions but really fast rubbing. It really helps her son to sleep

and he has severe sleep issues.

Prayers for your family as always

He really sounds like he's beside himself and full of anxiety...Almost

sounds like a continual panic attack.

Yuck..Poor Chris...

Another Seizure Question

went to bed after he was medicated, and after a lovely display

of behavior, but he went. Maybe a half hour later he came down

frustrated becasue as he was about to go to sleep he would have a

tingly feeling he said that made him all itchy and twitchy and he

would wake up. I took him back up and watched him and didn't see

anything by watching him except his obvious periodic agitation and

assoicated thrashing about every few minutes. I sat down next to him

and rubbed his back hoping that would provide a sensory distraction,

but allow him to relax and fall off to sleep. He still complained

several times but did seem to do okay with the back rubbing and did

drop off to sleep after about fifteen minutes of that.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Anyone have any other ideas?
