24 Hour EEG

The day after David's 9th birthday and 2 days after Annelise and I got back from our Florida trip, Charles and I check into Children's Hospital for his 24 hour EEG stay, where neurologists view him on video in his room all day and night to see any brain activity and actually get to see him and what things look like when he's having a seizure or tremor or general weakness.  It was a LONG 24 hours, but Charles did great.  The floor has books and activities and movies for the kids that the nurses and volunteers bring to his room.  In addition, a friend of mine (Courtney Clark -- Marianne and Heather's sister from Willow Creek Ward) was there with her son and they had been there for 6 weeks, so I really couldn't complain.  It was nice to see a friendly face.  Charles had a couple of seizures but they did not show up in his brain on the EEG as a "typical seizure" so once again, Charles is a MYSTERY. 















I took lots of pictures, he was so cute the whole time!!!
