Good Morning all. Well we are still in the EMU. Since last night M has had two seizures. We hope that we will have more today and they can accurately pin point its location in the brain. M has been in a lot of pain, as you can probably only imagine, but our sweet night nurse M came to the rescue last night and made a cocktail of meds that got M back on track. This morning we are keeping her on a regular schedule of pain meds and have just finished hearing from the neurosurgeon and epileptologist.
Report: M is doing well and will most likely have the leads in her head till Tuesday. Which means we might get to leave Wednesday or Thursday. Things are looking good despite the swelling and some leaking from her head. The surgeon replaced some of the stitches this morning. Her two seizures (so far) have been recorded and have yet to be analyzed. Hopefully, we'll see some "fruitful" results soon.
Thanks for your many prayers. Y'all have been so sweet and kind and M is finally back on her computer catching up on what has occurred over the last couple of days. Feel free to email to her and love on her. If you don't have her email, feel free to post a comment on the blog.

Meredith,
ReplyDeleteI have been "annonymously" reading your blog everyday this past week and I'm just now figuring out how to send you a message. This past week you have never left my thoughts. I'm praying for you, your mom, and your husband every day. Scarlett had told me about your seizures, and your amazing faith. I have to tell you that reading this blog and seeing for myself the faith, courage, and joy with which you have faced suffering has left me in awe. My faith has been encouraged by you. I pray that I might be able to honor HIM the way that you have when I face struggles of my own.
With much love and many prayers,
Danielle "Elliston" May
