The mother tried to wake her baby but she did not react, so she panicked very much – what happened after a week
Sleep is a crucial element when it comes to a healthy life. It is known that we must sleep at least 8 hours a night for a healthy life and to have enough energy throughout the day. A good portion of sleep is sometimes exactly what we need after a lot of stress and exhaustion. Have you heard of hypersomnia?
It is a neurological disorder in which a person sleeps excessively long, similar to a coma. It is a very deep sleep in short. A parent went through a problem that frightened her very much, you will find out what happened if you keep on reading.
A Russian mother named Alexandra was enjoying a day at home with her six-month-old daughter. All parents know how difficult it can be sometimes to put a child of this age to sleep, and Alexandra was very happy that she had finally succeeded and could spend a few moments with herself, reading her favorite book and drinking a glass of wine.
Time passed, she turned the pages and finally realized that something strange was happening. Anya had been sleeping for too long. She decided to stay a little longer, maybe she was too tired after so much play. After a few good hours, Alexandra returned to her little girl and saw that she was still sleeping, in the same position in which she had initially left her.
She tried to wake her up but the little girl gave no sign that she wanted to wake up. It was extremely strange, Anya was very sensitive to noise! After several failed attempts, Alexandra began to worry and called an ambulance that arrived very quickly. She was very scared, she didn’t know what was happening to her little girl! The two were transported to the hospital and after they arrived, the doctors began investigations immediately.
And they turned out to be just as puzzled. The little girl was neither in a coma nor could her condition be called sleep. After a week of worrying and stressing, little Anya woke up agitated. The investigations started again, the doctors did tests but nothing changed or abnormal in the girl’s body. After they were discharged, the same episode was repeated.
They concluded that the little one suffers from hypersomnia, but the factors that triggered this disorder are unclear. Please share Anya’s story!
