Another Night

Ella is spending another night in the hospital. Michelle is with her. Her seizures have not gone away despite the increase in medication (today it was increased again). The suspicion is that she has some sort of ear or urinary tract infection and that is known to lower an infants threshold for seizures. She was seen by several doctors, neurologists and several from the Epilepsy department. Tomorrow her case is going to be reviewed by Dr. Volpe, the head of the neurology department. If the antibiotics she is given does not help eliminate the seizures I expect a new medication will be tried. We are just hoping for something to make those horrible seizures go away already.
