Narcolepsy?

It's funny that Lucas used to be such a terrible sleeper, but now he seems to fall asleep anywhere. And once he's out, I cannot wake him. My sister suggested that maybe he has narcolepsy - after all, the other day he almost fell asleep in the bath tub. I barely got him out before he passed out. When I took him to the hospital for stitches a few weeks ago, he fell asleep in the cab on the way over and I could not wake him once we arrived. The doctors in the ER were quite alarmed.

Then, a few days ago I left Lucas sitting at the computer and took the garbage to the hallway. When I came back he was asleep - but not as you see in the picture below - his head was hanging all the way back. Just as I got the camera out, he leaned his head forward on to the desk.


And here Lucas fell asleep eating dinner (and watching TV) while I was putting Sam down for a nap. I was out of the room for about 8 minutes.
