Coming up


Hello
Last time around a let you know of a couple of events coming up for Mason. The dental appointment went great. They first put him to sleep with gas before giving him the IV. J no pain for the boy!! He came out of it with 6 minor fillings, and a halloween pumpkin smile. He had lost a tooth the week before, one other adult tooth was halfway in, then had two loose teeth pulled while at the hospital. It all went very well. Great recovery. Actually I was hoping he would be a little more sleepy. Not.
Today is the day we are going in to Childrens Hospital overnight for Intensive Monitoring. About 30 little wires will be glued to his head for an EEG to read the electrical activity in his brain. He will be videoed during this time as well. The hard part will be keeping this EXTREMELY active boy in a small area to capture every move on video for 24 hours or so. (pray that he will have LOTS of seizures during this time so we don’t have to stay longer) Our appointment begins at 1 pm this afternoon. It was nearly canceled because Mason was exposed to chicken pox last week, miraculously, they are letting him in, although it put them through more work keeping him in isolation etc.
Gotta run, now, and get the kids off to school. Thanks for your continued prayers and thoughts. !!!
