Chinese proverb

"An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place or circumstances. The thread may stretch or tangle but will never break."

Checked in...and hooked up

Today Audra was admitted to CHOP for a video EEG.  

She was in her room by 2:00 and had the EEG leads in place by 3:00.

She has a harness around her that holds a box that the many wires from her head connect to,
which is then connected to about 20 feet of cord so she can walk all around the room.
Which is a good thing, cause this girlie doesn't like to sit still.

It's a weird feeling to actually be hoping they find something wrong...
something they can treat...
that will help my girl gain developmental skills.
Crazy thought!!

Even with her head wrapped in gauze everyone says how beautiful she is!
Her smile lights up the room
and her laugh is contagious!
She's making friends around here fast...like she usually does :)

She's now fast asleep,
and while I am no expert in interpreting EEG's...
all the peaks and waves on the screen right now surely don't look like she's sleeping.
The screen definitely looked "quieter" when she was awake.

We might be here just one night,
or we may be here a few nights.

I'll know more when the sun comes up...
