Well today was fun. We were scheduled for an EEG. The neurologist wanted her very sleep deprived - and she was just that. We go there and they had put over twenty different wires all over her head then covered it. She looked funny. Then finally I was allowed to give her a bottle to make her sleep. After she had slept for about 15 minutes or so and she was just snorring away, she had asked me to start waking her up. We were both calling her name and then she started clapping her hands. Could you imagine? She had also asked me to make sure she does not move her head while waking her up. Then, she placed a small, adjustable light with a halogen strobe over her face - it was almost as bright as a police light - and started flashing at her while she was still trying to wake up. If it were me, oh my, I would of been so mad. Eva of course was crying. After about ten different sequences of this light flashing, she got a washcloth and a towel and messaged the water/glue/tape out of her hair and said we could go. Needless to say, she was still pretty tired. But hopefully, we will get positive results back from this test. Here are some pictures of her.
