Abigail Update
Abigail will be going home today after lunch, probably about 2pm today. They have her on intravenous antibiotics for the moment and want to continue keeping an eye on her. She will go in on the 19th March for another scan or something to monitor her longer term brain activity.
I actually spoke to Abigail on the phone because whenever I am on the phone she always wants to speak to me. I asked her where she was and she said in hospital. I asked her if she was feeling better and she said that she was a little bit poorly, but she was a little bit better too.
The Dr’s have said that she was definately having a fit that caused her breathing to be interupted and it lasted a good 20-40 minutes until the point when they intibated her. That is why Angela thought she was choking - it was from her having the seizure.
I hope this information is acurate, Angela and I only spoke for a couple of minutes.
I am working this weekend, and am leaving in about half an hour, but they should be going home soon!
oh dear! i’m so sorry to hear about abigail! i’ll be praying that that is all that was wrong and nothing more. and that they all can relax a bit!
