Monday

I can not thank you all enough for the support, love, emails, texts, phone messages, and friendship you are showering upon my family.  Your prayers for Abby are such a gift to us.  Things have gone ok today.  She had 3 seizures at 4:15 a.m. and then 3 more at 4 p.m.  Each time she is given a drug to stop the cluster and it zonks her.  So she is not really herself but she is ok.  The best part about the cluster in the afternoon is that it was captured on a video EEG... as will any she has tonight.  So doctors will be able to look at the EEG as well as her video and get a good idea of where it is starting and what kind it is and other seizure stuff.  We are hoping that it will provide some helpful information.

Last night they increased the topamax she is taking at night back up to 100 mg.  This is sad as we were only on 50 mg at night and 25 during the day.  The hope is that elevated levels of topamax will help calm things down and give us control again while the banzel is increased.

So we'll see what happens tonight and what kind of information we get back tomorrow.  Please continue to pray for her.  I can not thank you enough and really explain how helpful it is to me, to us, to know that so many brothers and sisters in Christ are before the Lord on her behalf.  Thank you.

  1. Trey is having trouble sleeping at night, and woke me up twice last night. Both times God put you guys on my heart and I prayed for you and have been continuing to do so throughout the day.

    I love you.
