Hi All:
Beth possibly had a small seizure Saturday AM. Some flutter in the eye. A friend of mine’s wife Jennie (nurse @ Kennestone) stopped in to say hi. While visiting Beth’s eyes fluttered. Had she not been there, not sure Beth would have known to say something – ‘Another miracle from God’. Saturday was Jennie’s 1st day to work in several days, she is on Beth’s floor in, Beth’s wing, in the same hall Beth is in. (definition; coincidence – the occurrence of events that happen at the same time that seem to be by accident and yet seem to be connected, but actually are orchestrated by God; however, He chooses to remain anonymous.)
Beth's Neurosurgeon (Javed) decided to keep her one more night for observation. Dr Javed called for a Neurologist (Waldrop) consult. Dr. Waldrop initially saw Beth 2 weeks ago while in the hospital. After some phone consult it was decided to start Beth on an anti-seizure medicine. So at 19:45 Beth got an IV of this med to be followed by oral meds once per day.
Beth’s speech is continuing to improve and her strength is returning. But she does get tired out pretty quick so we have to keep reminding her to “go slow”.
Beth got shower including her hair washed. She loved it and felt much better. After her shower we went for 2 laps around her floor (I guess around 50 yards per lap). Then later we did another 2 laps with Beth’s Mom (Memom) her sister Debbie, Rachael (Debbie’s daughter) and Shay.
The current plan is for Beth to be discharged today after Drs Javed and Waldrop see her.
Prayer Requests:
1) No Infection
2) Her Speech and Word Hunting return to normal and that Beth would have peace and confidence in the meanwhile
3) That Beth would see the progress she is making in her recovery and would be encouraged
4) Her incision on her scalp and the area of her skull that was removed would heal quickly
5) No more seizures and will not be long term on anti-seizure medicine
6) Her incision on her scalp and the area of her skull that was removed would heal quickly
7) and of course Her Hair Grows Back Quickly
Thanks for your love and prayers - clarke
