Mayo: Day 7

We arrived at the hospital at 8 am and by 9 Mike was all hooked up. He took a nap and accommodated the EEG video people with 2 seizures! They always happen while he is sleeping. Pretty impressed with how quickly this hospital team responded. He is on the epilepsy floor and you can tell the staff knows what they are doing and what to look for. The neurologist came in shortly after and talked to Mike and asked some questions. He then asked Mike to put his chin to his chest and sure enough he passed out. We were glad the doc was there to see it first hand, he was glad it was captured on video and the EEG. Later the head neurologist came in and told us they would gather info throughout the night (we assured him Mike would have another one while he slept tonight)
and would see us in the morning during rounds. So we don't know anything yet but are hoping they at least have a plan to send him home with. We leave the hospital at noon and then head to the airport. It may be a couple of days before we are able to post an update. We are traveling all day Friday and Liz will be traveling all day Saturday. I will try to do an update on Friday so Liz can post it before she leaves. If there is no post until Sunday, don't be worried, it doesn't mean bad news, it just means one of us couldn't get to it sooner.
