Hi all, just an update on what's going on here. Amber was admitted Wednesday to the hospital and on Thursday, she reported that she had a small Petit Mal seizure. It was documented and last night the doctor came in to talk to us. So far, he is trying to control the seizures with medication. He has changed her again to Dilantin. He said there are many girls her age who suddenly start having an increase in seizures and they don't know why. It could be hormones they don't know. Anyway, he said he will try different medications until they find one that works. If nothing works, then they will look at possibly inserting a pacemaker into the vein(?) or surgery of the brain. At this point he does not feel comfortable doing either one which is why he wants to try the different medications to see if that will work. She is going to be in through the week-end possibly being released Sunday or Monday. The new medication was started today and as I said previously, she is hooked up to a monitor so if she has a seizure, they will know.
Robert is now looking for work and will start to really do the job search the beginning of the week. We really need for him to find a job and perhaps getting out of the education field is what he needs to do. Please keep that in your prayers as well.
On a good note, I got my suburban back, new transmission and all, and it didn't cost a dime. The extended warranty covered the entire cost.
That's about it for now. Will keep posting updates as they devleop.
