Daddy of the Year

When I left Mark with Ruby in the hospital on Monday night she was calmly sleeping, so I felt pretty good about how the night would go. I guess I should have been more worried, because Ruby was screaming mad for Mark from about 9pm-3am.  Mark slept maybe an hour and a half the whole night. The nurses tried to help, but no one could calm her down.  I am thinking she was so upset because her head was wrapped in wires, she wasn't in her own bed, there were weird smells all around...etc.  I feel so bad that I left Mark alone at the hospital while Charlie and I slept soundly at home.  He was a trooper though; I think he earned Daddy of the Year award after Monday night.

Thankfully, she did have one of her new seizures in the middle of the night, so they were able to record that.  We haven't heard anything from neurology yet. I will probably call by the end of the day if I haven't heard from them.  Hopefully they have a good plan of action for us.

I could have told you that he was a great dad because he is a great son! :-)
Glad that you are through that episode and now can drive on! We are SO excited to come out in three weeks. Keep us posted as to what you find out after the EEG is read.

Love you all...Mom
