A Big Week - Day 11

We were hoping to stay at Ronald McDonald house together yesterday and then drive home today but things didn't quite work out like that.
Immi wasnt quite herself all day, staring into space and not responding to her name, sonwe decided to spend another night on the ward.
We went over to visit a friend on another ward and when we came back she went very quiet and fell asleep very early.
However, she kept half sitting up, opening her eyes, her pupils huge and staring into space and wouldn't respond to her name. Or stretching, hahlf opening her eyes with her eyes rolled back. It was happening really frequently so I called the nurse over and neither of us were sure if it was seizure related or sleep related. Eventually she fell asleep properly and we woke her at 9.30 this morning. Its quite a feat to stay aleep on a ward this busy!

Anyway, she seems a lot like her normal self today. A minute seizure in the middle of the day so far, but that is quite normal for her. We are being discharged to Ronald McDonald house and the bed will stay open over night while we are there, just in case. We will pop back in the morning to have her wounds checked and then hopefully we can start the journey home!
Immi and Emma the play worker (and very patient!!)


We also heard today that Immi has been awarded a place in the local Special Needs school too, so she will have a couple of transition sessions next week!

  1. Oh my goodness. Prayers will not stop but I breathe a sigh of relief that you will be able to return home and a big prayer of praise for the place in the Special Needs School! Please keep us well and truly updated. You are each embedded in our hearts now.

  2. How glad you'll all be to see home- and your own beds �� - after such a week. Yet you recorded many positives amongst the bleakest moments, and your love and deep trust in the Lord shone through. That's good that Immi will get a preview of her new school..hope that she adjusts well and really likes it. With love and prayer, Cath
