Silly Pic & Update


Sorry for the quality of the pic above- I took it with my i-phone. This is Oliver in his EEG getup. It is quite a look :) He is constantly trying to tear it off. They eventually had to re-wrap his head and glue the "hat" back on. Underneath the "hat" he has about 50 electrodes that are glued to his head. The plan is for him to be monitored for 24 hours. As I said earlier they are watching his brain activity for anything unusual. At this time the the last seizure he had was very brief, 30 seconds or so, on Sunday right after he came off the helicopter. The good news is the seizure medication they are giving him seems to be working well.

Oliver's MRI and MRA are scheduled for 1 pm tomorrow. We are hoping to have preliminary results sometime tomorrow evening with final results on Wednesday. We are continuing to be super encouraged by all your prayers and support. Please keep praying!

I was praying at 1pm today thinking of you two and Oliver getting an MRI. It was great to see him smiling at Ben playing peek-a-boo yesterday. Love y'all. Jeff
