Yesterday, Lucy was taken by ambulance to OU Children's for seizures and low oxygen levels. Her seizures had been increasing since Wednesday. We first thought that the seizure increase was from her surgery, but they continued to increase and became almost constant.
The ER was amazing, and everyone welcomed us in and started right away to get Lucy cared for. The Attending said, "Well hello, Lucy Belle" as we wheeled in from the ambulance. There is that comfort factor again, which I am so grateful for.
We had a very hard time getting Lucy's seizures under control yesterday. In fact, they continued to get worse so more and more meds were administered. By 11pm, her little body stopped seizing (at least as far as we could tell). She was put on oxygen because her oxygen levels again were going low.
Overnight, Lucy slept well. She is snowed but is now on room air, doing great without oxygen. We aren't sure why this has happened. We don't know how long we will be here. We don't know much, to be honest - no one does. We will just go off of Lucy's cues. Today will be all about her. We pray that she will wake up soon and that her seizures will be over, or at least back to her "normal".
Since Lucy is so sensitive right now, we are asking for no visitors. Thank you so much for praying for Our Lu Lu.
