My work is close to the hospital so I'm here (at the hospital) while Gary takes a break. He said that the last time she vomited was 9:30 last night and she's mostly been sleeping ever since. She wakes occasionally because of pain or because she wants to change positions. When I got here about an hour ago, she was asleep but I said hello and held onto her hand. When I moved she wouldn't let go of my hand, so she's probably in a drugged state, but still knows what's going on at least some of the time. Gary said they both slept a lot last night. Thanks to Gary for sleeping all night in a small recliner. I wouldn't have slept much at all.
Thanks Raina, for bringing me food yesterday, that was really thoughtful and delicious. Also, thanks for the trashy magazines. It's a relief to know that Tom wants Katie back and that Rob's friends won't let Kristen "get away with this."
I asked the EEG specialist (I don't know her actual title) how many leads they used and she told me. And then I forgot. But I'm pretty sure it's 64. Isn't that cool? The surgeon showed us some CAT scans of her brain post-surgery and it was incredible. I'm going to see if I can get a copy and post it. There are electrodes all over the place on the left hemisphere. I don't know how he got them in so many places with a relatively small opening. I didn't realize they did that. I was thinking it was just in the opening that they put the leads.
Well, there's not much else going on at this point. I'm sure that if/when Sophia is more cognizant, she will get bored and would enjoy some visitors. Even though she's in the ICU, the nurse told me that they don't have a strict rules about age as they used to. They just want people to know that there are risks of children being exposed to things in the hospital. I will keep everyone posted.
Please let me know when would be a good time to visit. I will just have my parents watch my chilluns. :)
