Update on Charlotte: the EEG test came back and showed some "different" activity in the left posterior of her brain. Could be harmless after effects of her seizure and it may return to normal electrical activity with time. We were given the option to put her on a med that can help control future seizures, but no guarantees. Also given the option to not medicate right now and if it happens again in the future, then we can medicate. We chose not to medicate at this time (she's already on enough drugs), but we do have an emergency nasal spray type medicine that we can administer if she has another seizure that we observe lasting longer than 5 minutes. We finally got out of the hospital about 7 pm last night - exhausted, scared, but very thankful Charlotte is back to her normal sweet self.
Thank you for your comments, words of support, thoughts and prayers. Seeing them really does help know that there are always others out there with similar experiences and love to give. Doing my best to stay strong.
