We just got home from her Dr. appt. and I think I am more worried now than before. They think it was severe dehydration... BUT... also brought up the possibility of a seizure in her sleep thus putting her in a comatose like state for hours afterwards. We were referred to a Pediatric neurologist and they are working on scheduling an EEG to see if there was a change in her brain wave activity during the nite. They said that they think this is a very small chance BUT it is a chance and it would be better to get the test (or at least talk to the neurologist) and find nothing than not get it and always wonder.
I know and want to believe that God has this under control... but I am still asking "Why" Please pray that either a) the neurologist doesn't think the test is necessary or b) we have it and nothing shows up...
Update 2...
the ped. neurologist couldn't see us for 2 more weeks so they went ahead and scheduled the EEG first. She goes in Thursday morning at 8am for the testing. They said it won't hurt her at all- she will just have to sit with electrodes on her head which will record her brain activity.
If all of that shows up normal, then she will not have to see the neurologist, and of course, if it doesn't, then she will be seeing him for follow up.
Please please please keep her in your prayers. I am so scared for my little girl
She did wake up normal from her nap today- the short one she had. The phone rang and stirred her and then she was rearing to go. Normally I wouldn't want her up after only a half hour, but today, I was so glad to see her awake on her own and be ready to play right away.
I am still scared as all get out... but her loving on me today and being as silly as ever is at least keeping my mind somewhat occupied.
