Praise the Lord for good news

Sarah had her EEG yesterday and it showed that the seizures she is having are coming from the left side of her brain. Right now you are asking how can that be when her left side has been disconnected? Well, there are a couple of explanations. One is that there is a connection that did not get cut. The other would be that the proximity of her left and right hemispheres could allow the left to affect the right side. If that is the case there is a very strong probability that the seizures will suddenly stop and not return, but you never know how long that will take. Dr. Franz told us about another patient that had this same issue and her seizures just suddenly stopped after about a month and never came back. We are hoping that is the case. We would hate for her to go through another surgery. She is going to get some special type of MRI to see if they can find any connections that were not severed. I will let everyone know when that is done.

    Praise the Lord, indeed! See He really does hear our prayers and cares about our fears. I will pray that there is no need for another surgery. Sarah has been thru too much already! Now to begin praying that the seizures “just stop”…like tomorrow!
    Love you all. Try to stay in the moment and lovingly care for Logan and Ava. I know that worry about Sarah has consumed your every moment so if you need someone to help with Logan and Ava, please call.
    Love-Marla

    People from the yahoo group have had this happen before. Hang in there, and know that we are all praying for Sarah and your family. I love the pictures and videoes on your site, she looks like a strong little girl. Lots of thoughts and prayers from SC.
