Where Have I Been...........

Three has been a lot going on.  The biggest turn of events in our lives is that Emily has been diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome.  It has been a very emotional month - making doctor appointments and getting medications regulated.  I have had so much support from my family and friends - thank you ALL for everything you have done for us! 

At the beginning of June, Em had a short stay at ACH for testing.  Emily is doing very well and everything went fine at the hospital. They ruled out everything else that could have been causing her symptoms. 

Of course, I took pictures of the whole ordeal. So, here is a recap of the adventure.......

In the ER - seen by the ER doctor and awaiting an EEG.

Still waiting for the EEG.  Reading helps the time go by!

All hooked up for the EEG.

Nice Hair - after the EEG.
Oh, by the way, the EEG was normal!!

Emily's first IV.

Emily's nurse gave her a little puppy for getting the IV done!

Some of the meds made emily a bit sleepy.

I got Emily these two little guys,
they look like Sheeba and Alpo!

Hair done for the MRI - my first french braid ever,
that's what my Emily wanted - so I did it!
