Angela Mar 31/11 1045pm Day 43

Well I was pretty disappointed with the Doctors Meeting today. We didn't really learn much except that neurologically, they do not think there was any more damaged caused by the seizures. Root cause of the seizures appears to be her sodium levels being out. The ICU doctors were not present at the meeting.

They did an upper G.I. scope on Angela today but we did not hear any results from it as of yet. There is a high probability of internal bleeding caused by some bleeding ulcers.

When we visited Angela today, she seemed to be semi-coherent. She was not talking but was able to follow verbal commands for brief periods before she would slip out of it again. This feels like we are starting the healing process all over again. Its Day 43 and I can tell this is taking its toll on Angela as well as the rest of the family. We can only hope and pray that she is going to continue to progress forward and hopefully with no more setbacks. This has certainly been such an emotional roller-coaster for all friends and family. Thank you to everyone for your kind gestures, thoughts and prayers during this trying time for our family.
