On Thursday, we went in to take Kina's EEG, or brain scan. Our doctor wanted to follow up after her seizure just to make sure her brain activity was normal. The nurse had given me specific instructions to bring her in tired so she could sleep through the test, so I kept her up late the night before and woke her up early in the morning. I kept her up all morning, but of course, as soon as I got in the car to take her to the hospital she fell asleep! She slept right up until the test was supposed to start and then WOKE UP. . . so we had to put everything on hold until I put her back to sleep again. Aargh! I was a little stressed. After a good half hour or so she went back to sleep again and from there, everything went smoothly. The test took about an hour and she slept right through it. They've sent the results up to Primary Children's Hospital and hopefully, we'll get them back next month.
They had to scrub her little scalp just to make sure there was no oil or anything on it. It's the scrubbing that woke her up. After that they put a million of these little sensors everywhere with this sticky thick glue gel stuff. . . then to put her back to sleep. . .
Once she was asleep though, it was smooth sailing. Aww. Sweet Kina.
After it was all over. They scrubbed her head again to get all the goop out. It made for a very cute hair-do.
Love my sweet Kina. I'm so glad she's okay.
