Abby coming home today

After almost a week in hospital Abigail is being discharged from the QE this afternoon. The seizure episodes of the last few days have calmed down considerably and although she’s had the occasional minor fit lasting a minute or two, she’s been awake and alert again in the last few days. She’s needed no emergency drug intervention for around 48 hours now. Doctors increased some of her regular medication at the end of last week and feel it’s likely that Abby had simply outgrown her drug dosages. We’re looking forward to getting her home again – it’s been hard having her back in hospital after six weeks at home, but we’re glad that she didn’t have to spend too long on the ward this time.
