Just a bit of info for those who don't know. We found Hope in her bed having a seizure on Friday morning, called the ambulance after a while and by the time the meds were effective, she had been seizing for 2 1/2 hours, followed by 35 minutes of not breathing due to the effects of the emergency meds. She was 'bagged'(air was forced into her lungs with a bag and mask) during that time but not intubated (no tube down her throat). Since then she's taken a while to wake up, had some subsequent 'non-breathing' episodes, and shown some left sided paralysis, which appears to be resolving. EEG (brain wave scan) shows constant epileptic activity with more seizures on top of that. The doctors still hope to get the seizures to stop. We just want to go home and cuddle her without the tubes.
