On Wednesday, Emily and I will depart for Children's Hospital in Boston for a 48 hour EEG. This results of this EEG will be the sole determining factor in the decision to take her off of her medicine for seizures (well, that and of course if she doesn't have any between now and then). She has not had a seizure in almost 4 years.
It's exciting (not the actual trip to the hospital but the possibility of her going off of her medication) but scary just the same. Going off of her medicine, even if her EEG results come back clear, brings with it the chance that she could have one. Of course, that chance exists even when she is on the medication. Seizures are weird like that.
Anyway, if you could all send some positive vibes this way? It would be much appreciated!
