Update to yesterday's sunny news.

As we were preparing to leave Houston this morning, Rusty had a seizure...first one since January and more severe than any previous seizures.  Ambulance ride into MDAnderson ER...teams of neuro specialists, CT scan, MRI, EEG, EKG, x-ray and multiple physician exams.  It appears that there is some inflammation in the brain...hopefully the MRI will be more definitive regarding the nature of the inflammation.  In the meantime, Rusty will be admitted this evening for 3-4 days, they have increased his seizure medication and have started steroids to decrease the inflammation.

Prayers please.

  1. So sorry but thankful it happened in Houston where his own doctors were immediately. I have positive thoughts that this is such a small stumble and he will do fine. But my prayers continue with my morning daily devotions .
