Yeah!!! We got out of the house, to enjoy a family day at the Allen's farm. Hope was crying the entire time she was getting ready, but once she was in the van she settled and enjoyed the ride. She took her first bottle by mouth today and kept it down, so we gave her formula by bottle for the rest of the day. Very exciting. She slept most of the day and then woke up to drink another bottle and have a few brief seizures. Then she blessed us with a lovely little, lopsided smile (still paralyzed on her left side). Even more exciting.
Then we got home and she started crying shortly after. Followed by a few scary looking seizures that resulted in a dose of Midazolam (to stop the seizures). Now she's sleeping, and she looks quite peaceful again. I'ld say it was a pretty good Thanksgiving Day.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
