Taylor's seizures had increased from about 6 a day to about 15 a day over the Thanksgiving week so the doctors had us check back into Children's Hospital here in Atlanta for a few tests. Taylor had a spinal tap...not fun :( We'll receive the results back from that in 2 weeks. We also did a 48 hour video monitored EEG and sleep test. (They should call it a "No Sleep Test" b/c the lights have to stay on all night and it's not comfortable having 28 electrodes glued to your head <see pic below>.....miserable!)
Friday, we meet with our Atlanta neurologist to go over his opinion on that visit.
Sunday we head to Memphis to check into Le Bonheur Hospital for 5 days. There, we'll meet with some of the best doctors in the world that specialize in Infantile Spasms. It's a way for us to get a 2nd set of eyes on Taylor. While there, he'll get another very detailed MRI and a 5 day EEG while administering various drug treatments.
Please keep up your prayers for Taylor. We really appreciate your continued Love and positive thoughts.
Below is a picture of Taylor getting some Great Grandmother Love...
Merry Christmas to everyone.
