Evangeline has had a relatively good day. With additional loading of drugs, her observable seizure activity has been significantly reduced. One of the decisions that was approaching but pushed into high gear due to her hospital stay is surgery to implant a VNS device. The neurosurgeon was in today and has setup Evangeline for surgery tomorrow.
Since Evangeline will be placed under anesthesia, there were a couple other procedures that we had been waiting on which are also moving forward. One of those is an MRI – she is headed in for that in the next half an hour or so. Although this should be fairly routine, it is always a bit nerve-wracking to have your daughter put under anesthesia.
After her MRI she will intubated and sedated until after the VNS surgery tomorrow afternoon. Please pray for all to continue to go well and for God’s healing hands to be upon her.
