Waiting


 
 
On Wednesday our daughter had an MRI, as a result of a seizure a week ago today. The honey and I were so blessed to have a dear friend of ours watch the boys, so that we could both be with her for the procedure. She was set to have the MRI at 9:30am, but she didn't actually go in until nearly 11am because of another procedure ahead of her taking longer. Needless to say, she was upset, hungry, and confused by the time it came for her to get her sedation IV, which was an awesome start to getting stuck :) That part was rough on her. I was surprised how long we were able to distract her, thanks to toys, coloring, Disney channel, and Netflix. Thank the Lord for electronics. Really. Despite the last hour or so of fussiness, we had an incredible experience, as always, with our nurses and the staff. They took such gentle care of our daughter and treated her just like she was their own. When our nurse wheeled her out, after the MRI, and she was just beginning to wake up, the nurse was patting her little bottom to calm her, just like I do. It made me feel good. She was a little out of it for the rest of the day. It was kind of funny.

 
We still haven't heard from the neurologist about the results, but they said it should be today. We will be sure to keep you posted. Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement during this time. We really appreciate it!
