Photos of Chris on the Neuroscience Floor- Brief Update



Not too much new to report
Pics for you guys... info below.. one pic is Chris late last night while they were attaching wires to head... other pic is Chris today sitting in chair.. they are videoing him 24/7... He is feeling good.. we are watching football


Chris has been hooked up to lots of electrodes and head is wrapped (so they dont come off) and has wires in a sock like thing...


They gave him a button to push if he has an episode (so they know to pay attention to that part of the recording..) Well, all night, he had no episodes...


only episode was that at 3am or so i was awakened by a very loud noice... a helicopter was landing on the roof about 50-75 feet outside the window... i watched it land..i closed my eyes again... great view of the landing pad area.. lol


Chris heard it too and we both went back to sleep




This morning, the neurologist Konstantin Balashov came in and said they were putting him on anti-seizure meds ... they said he didnt sleep much during the night but they saw some sort of seizure like activity.... the original EEG from earlier yesterday saw stuff but they didnt see the beginning of his episode... Preliminary of the MRI looks fine... no leisions... they will probably re-MRI the head in a few weeks


So far today, Chris has had no episodes...


We will be here in 7 Tower all day so they can continue recording him.. ugh




I am posting pics of him... thanks everyone for the prayers and thoughts...
