It was 101 degrees in Virginia today . . . and the day seemed to drag on as we waited for one of the doctors to come in from the hospital. Once again Kristina's doctor seemed very excited over the progress...even though she has had some difficult gran mal seizures this month. We sometimes don't look at the big picture when we are living it day by day, but the doctors were excited over the decrease in number of seizures this month (16 documented versus 40 documented last month). They didn't seem as alarmed as I was about the severity of one of the gran mals. So, I guess when they put it like that is sounds much better. Of course, we had our hopes up that this was just going to be turned on and "no more seizures." I know, I know, patience is a virtue.
We had some kinda sad news today as we were leaving the doctor. The representative for the device that has been with us since surgery: training us and the docs on the use of the laptops and all the necessary equipment, is leaving the company. He is based out of Washington and travels all over the US to the see the patients in the study and is resigning due to family and personal reasons. He did share with us that he is very optimistic about the direction this is going with Kristina, however he did say we have a long way to go. There will be another representative from the device company; he has just been with us along the way. So, we will continue to plan our monthly adventures to Virginia and pray that things go well.
Keep Krissy in your prayers as we continue to go on day to day, month to month. And believe it or not, gas prices in Virginia are even higher than NC!! But, we know God is in control and will continue to provide all our needs.
To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven...
