I got a call from the hospital this morning letting me know that the neurologist will be calling me this evening or tomorrow regarding the timing for the surgery. Sprite hasn't had another seizure since last Thursday so that is good news. I think adding the phenobarbital has helped. It seems her body had adjusted to the Kepra so it wasn't as effective anymore. I did offer to cross the border to get the part if that would help. The shunt is manufactured for human use and that's why it is complicated and creates lots of red tape. The neurologist told me there is an organization that helps in these cases and they're already at work for us.....I can't remember their name. I promise to update as soon as I hear from the neurologist! Thanks again for your support! |
