Today brought on a lot of crying from Zoey. She had to be sleep deprived to have an eeg done today. We had to keep her awake an extra hour and then wake her up at 4:30 this morning. For a kid that is already lacking in sleep, it was hard to keep her awake.
On a good note Zoey's EEG looked better than it did before and she isn't having as many seizures. So the medicine is working just very slowly. She is on the highest dosage now if prednisolone. She has one week in this dosage and then that's all she can have. So now is when prayers are needed! We really don't want to have her go on another medication. The harder it is to stop the seizures the harsher the medication is. Prednisolone isn't a pretty medication to be on so we would like to see her just be done!
We are planning to do a family fast this Sunday. Anyone wanting to join us is mire than welcome! We want these seizures to stop! Please keep her in your prayers.
On a good note, primary childrens gave us a blood pressure cuff to use for Zoey at her check ups! She had it checked today and although it is a little elavated, its not enough to stop the med. I have one more week then I must check in and the Dr.s will tell us what to do then. I feel like we are going in the right direction!
