Everything seems to be going as well as it could go in the hospital as of right now. Evangeline had a good overnight and the hope is that she will be able to go home today. The cardiac care team started her on a medication last evening that will be a maintenance med in hopes of avoiding any additional instances of heart racing. They are observing her but there do not appear to be any adverse reactions to the medication so far.
Evangeline does have a small cold that seems to be contributing to some seizure activity and just generally annoying her. The neurology care team is taking a wait and see approach to any medication changes. We are in agreement with this plan and will help her get past the cold before we evaluate her seizure burden. The doctors will be making some adjustments to her VNS which have been planned for a little while now. We are hopeful that the increase in stimulation will be beneficial to Evangeline.
Thank you for your continued prayers! We appreciate them! Would you pray today for Evangeline to get past this cold and that all continues to go well so she can come home today?
