So Brave

Today was Isabelle's big day at the hospital for her EEG.  I could honestly not be more proud of her.  She did amazing.  We had to sleep deprive her last night as they wanted her to fall asleep for the test.  Knowing Isabelle, Kevin and I thought that would never in a million years happen.  We put her to bed two hours later then normal and woke her up two hours earlier and did not let her nap before.  Once at the hospital, she had to lay in a little hospital bed while they marked her head up and glued the "stickers" as we called them on.  She had to have them on her cheeks, by her eyes, all over her head, and on her heart.  They then wrapped her head up like a mummy.  She was not happy during this part, but as soon as they were done getting her all hooked up, they turned the light out and she fell asleep within seconds.  I laid by her in the hospital bed and she slept during the whole exam and we actually had to wake her when it was almost over.  Isabelle was so brave today for being such a little girl.  We are so proud.  We are awaiting on the results from the neurologist (although it may take up to a week), and will update once we have them.
 
Thank you to everyone for your prayers, emails, texts, and kind words.  I know our prayers were answered today and we will continue to pray we will get positive test results.
