spikes

Reflecting today on spikes...
-a rapid deviation and return to baseline
-a sharp spot that can have potential for injury
-a disruption of normal that can have mild to moderate consequences
These are my quick definitions. They are significant to me today as I just received THE call today re: the sleep-deprived EEG from last week. "Spikes were seen on the right occipital lobe and could indicate an increased risk for focal and a secondary risk for generalized seizures". It is odd that although I knew this would most likely be the result I feel as though our family life just spiked. I do not know what this will all entail other then the appointment with the neurologist can now be justifiably moved up from it's original 11/23 schedule. I anticipate a few more of these family spikes as we wait, formulate a treatment plan, and strive to keep our daughter safe and "normal". Thank you for your continued prayers.
