Today we have had a few setbacks.
Kamryn has had a couple more "breakthrough" seizures this morning. The doctors had to restart the IV, which she was not happy about. The new IV was used to get a new drug, that was added to phenobarbital, to hopefully stop these seizures.
The doctors explained it very well today. They are trying to build a dam, with the medication, that will stop the flow of seizures. They do not know how high it will take until they stop so they just have to give her medicine and wait and see. Once the dam is built and holds they will observe for a few days and then release her. Over time the seizures should go away and we will be able to wean her off the medicines.
They also put the feeding tube in to make sure we can feed her. This is because the medication makes her pretty sleepy and she will not eat.
They ordered a new EEG and the neurologist will come by later today to talk to us. We will update the blog later tonight with any new information. Thank for keeping us in your prayers.
