Whew!! What a crazy couple of days!!! Yesterday Mom’s seizures increased to happening every 5 minutes or so, it was awful to see and we were petrified! After running tests yesterday, they started treating her with antibiotics for a UTI and by this afternoon her seizures have stopped. This will likely delay her recovery but she did open BOTH of her eyes today and kept them open for about 30 minutes which she has never done before so that was good to see!!!!!! She didn’t really “register” what she was seeing if she was able to see but it’s still much better than yesterday. She is still at risk for pneumonia because people who have a trach and have seizures are at risk for aspiration so they will be keeping a close eye on that over the next few days. This experience has been one of the longest rollercoaster rides we’ve ever been on but we are so grateful to be experiencing a positive after a new days of fear.
We are still a very long ways away from having the funds necessary to transfer her back to the states and things have started to die down on the GoFundMe front so if you could help us continue to share this campaign to get her home, we would greatly appreciate it!!!❤️. Much love to you all!
