A Difficult Week

Rana's had a difficult week or so. She started seizing randomly in June, and the seizures have become very frequent over the course of the last week. She had a check-up with her new pediatric neurolgist at the end of June and the EEG looked fine, so we are puzzled. Her doctor has scheduled another round of tests for the end of July, which should bring more clarity. Rana was very cooperative at her last appointment, so we are hoping that she endures the overnight stay in the hospital and the probing it entails with the same grace.
The beautiful summer weather has allowed for some great summertime fun, but the heatwave seems to be contributing to Rana's seizures, so we are hoping for some cooler temperatures soon!

In the mean time, we purchased a little air conditioning unit for our apartment and are trying to stay cool!


We are relieved that our semester is coming to a close this week so that we have more time to focus just on Rana. And hopefully she will be back to her fun-loving, energetic self soon!
