The Steve Experiment

Why, that is a very attractive fanny pack you have sir

I can't believe I am smiling and I think this is going to end up on her dumb blog

A few weeks ago Steve and I had an appointment with a neurologist at Barrow Neurological Institute. We were on a 4 month wait list but someone called and canceled their appointment-Thank you stranger. We met with Dr. Maganti and he was great! We felt a lot better about the future after discussing Steve's "events" with him. Part of finding out why Steve is having events meant a possible 7 day stay at the lovely resort and spa-I mean St. Joe's Hospital in downtown Phoenix while being hooked up to a EEG and EKG monitor and 24 hour camera surveillance. They were able to squeeze Steve into the unit with a weeks notice and last Thurs that is were Steve was. He got hooked up to these monitors and had to be belted in the bed or belted in the chair beside the bed with a camera watching him at all times. With the help of a clever friend, and the WiFi hookup, he kept busy for 2 days. He had an event on Friday while the neurologist was present and they got all the data they needed. On Saturday he got to come home. He is having "non-epileptic events" that are very treatable and in most cases the seizures stop. All in all it's good news. Thanks to all for your thoughts and prayers and special thanks to Nicole-best carpooling friend ever, Homer, Wart and the Dean's for keeping an eye out on the girls!
