DAY +39

I WANT TO START BY SAYING THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOR ALL OF THE PRAYERS AND SUPPORT EVERYONE HAS BEEN GIVING US. I FINALLY GOT THE CHANCE TO LOG ON TO A COMPUTER THIS EVENING AND I STARTED CRYING LIKE A BABY WHEN I SEEN HOW MANY PEOPLE HAD LEFT MESSAGE'S AND PRAYERS FOR ALICIA AND MY FAMILY. I TRUELLY BELIEVE THAT ALL THE PRAYERS THAT WERE SAID IN THE PAST 24 HOURS WERE HEARD AND I THANK EVERYONE SO MUCH.

I WANT TO SAY A VERY VERY SPECIAL THANKS TO A VERY DEAR FRIEND, KRISSTINA. I WOULD NOT OF MADE IT THROUGH THIS WITHOUT YOU!!!!!!!! THANK YOU KRISSTINA FOR BEING THERE FOR ME. YOU ARE VERY SPECIAL TO ME AND I AM SOOOO THANKFUL TO HAVE YOU AS A FRIEND.

NOW WHERE TO START.................... LETS JUST SAY YESTERDAY WAS THE MOST SCARIEST SITUATION I HAVE EER BEEN IN OR HAD TO SEE ALICIA GO THROUGH EVER.

IT HAPPENED SOME TIME AROUND 10 AM. THE DOCTORS HAD JUST DID ROUNDS ON ALICIA AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. AS SOON AS THE DOCS LEFT THE ROOM ALICIA SEEMED TO BE ACTING STRANGE TO ME AND IN A MATTER OF SECOND HER ENTIRE RIGHT SIDE OF HER BODY STARTED TWITCHING AND SHE WASN'T MAKING ANY SINCE IN WHAT SHE WAS SAYING. I YELLED AT THE DOCS WHO WERE STILL JUST OUTSIDE MY DOOR AND WHEN THEY WALKED IN ALICIA WAS IN A FULL BLOWN SIEZURE. WHEN SHE CAME OUT OF IT WHICH HAD LASTED AROUND 2 MINUTES, SHE COULD NOT MOVE HER WHOLD RIGHT SIDE OF HER BODY AND SHE WAS NOT REACTING TO ANYONE. HER RIGHT PUPIL WOULD NOT DIOLATE, AND SHE WAS IN LIKE A OUTER SPACE STAGE. SHE WAS JUST LOOKING IN THE AIR. I FELT LIKE MY HEART WAS COMING OUT OF MY CHEST, I HAD NEVER BEEN SO SCARED IN MY LIFE. I HAD TO GO IN THE HALL SO I COULD BREATHE. THAT IS WHEN I CALLED TINA AND SHE WAS HERE IN A MATTER OF MINUTES.

THEY RUSHED ALICIA TO CT DO DO A SCAN ON HER BRAIN AND WHEN WE WERE THERE SHE HAD TWO MORE SIEZURES, ONE LASTED OVER FIVE MINUTES. THEY GAVE HER SO MUCH ADAVAN IN CT THAT THEY RAN OUT AND HAD TO GET SOME FROM THE ER JUST TO TRANSPORT HER BACK TO HER ROOM. THEY SAID SHE HAD SO MUCH ADAVAN ( I AM PROBABLY SPELLING THAT WRONG) THAT IT WOULD OF KNOCKED ME OUT. WHEN WE MADE IT BACK TO THE ROOM IS ABOUT WHEN TINA GOT HERE AND ALICIA WAS STILL NOT MOVING ANYTHING ON HER RIGHT SIDE. SHE WAS VERY MUCH IN A DAZED STATE BUT SHE KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON BECAUSE WHEN SHE SEEN TINA SHE SMILED ( AT LEAST THE LEFT SIDE SMILED). I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT AFTER HER FIRST SIEZURE HER OXYGEN LEVEL DROPPED VERY FAST. IT GOT DOWN IN THE LOW 70'S AND THE STARTED GIVING HER 100% OXYGEN.

AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES DR JORDAN CAME IN AND SAID THE CT SHOWED A SPOT ON THE LEFT SIDE OF HER BRAIN. HE SAID IT WAS LOCALIZED IN JUST ONE AREA AND THAT IT WAS NOT ALL OVER BUT THEY WERE ERY CONCERNED. HE NAMED OFF SEVERAL THINGS IT COILD BE BUT HE WANTED ALICIA TO BE MOVED TO THE ICU TO BE MONITORED UNTIL THEY HAD THE SIEZURES UNDER CONTROL WITH MEDICATION.

IN THE ICU THE GAVE HER A VERY LARGE AMOUNT OF DILATINE ( HOWEVER YOU SPELL IT) AND IT SEEMED TO STOP HER FROM SIEZING. SHE DID HAVE ONE MORE IN THE ICU BUT IT DID NOT LAST LONG.

HER LITTLE BODY WAS SO TIRED FOR ALL THE SIEZURES, THEY SAID IT TAKES ALOT OUT OF SOMEONE TO HAVE ONE. I JUST SAT AND WATCHED ALICIA LIKE A HAWK. BEFORE WE WENT TO ICU BOTH OF ALICIA'S PUPILS WERE NOT DIOLATING AND SHE COULD BARELY MOVE HER LEFT ARM EITHER BUT AROUND SEVEN LAST NIGHT ( I THINK) SHE STARTED GAINING A LITTLE USE EVEN ON HER RIGHT SIDE. I WAS SOOOOO HAPPY TO SEE THAT. I THOUGHT MY BABY WAS PARALIZED. IN THE ICU THEY ASKED HER WHAT MY NAME WAS AND SHE COULD NOT TELL THEM. I ABOUT LOST IT THEN ALSO UNTIL WHEN ALL OF THE NURSES WERE MESSING WITH HER I HEARD HER YELL MEE-MA. IT WAS THEN I KNEW SHE WAS GOING TO BE OK. SHE STARTED TALKING A LITTLE AFTER THAT BUT SHE WAS SLURRING ALOT. ALL I COULD UNDERSTAND WAS CANDY AND CHICKEN NUGGETS AND SHE SAID THAT ALL NIGHT. (AND YES SHE DID GET CHICKEN NUGGETS TODAY RIGHT WHEN WE GOT BACK TO THE FLOOR)

DOCTOR DAVIES CAME THIS MORNING AND SEEN US AND SHE WANTED TO PUT THE MRI OFF UNTIL TOMORROW MORNING, SHE THINKS THAT A MEDICINE CALLED CYCLOSPORIN COULD BE CAUSING THIS. IT IS A MED TAHT SUPPRESSES THE IMMUNE SYSTEM, AND IT WAS HELPING WITH THE GVH. SHE TOOK HER COMPLETELY OFF OF IT TODAY AND WANTS TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY CHANGE TOMORROW IN THE MRI WITH THAT. THEY ALSO DID A SPINAL TAP WHICH THE RESULTS CAME BACK GOOD.

WE SHOULD KNOW MORE TOMORROW AS TO WHAT IS GOING ON. I WILL LET EVERYONE KNOW WHEN I DO.

ERIKA HAD A VERY VERY VERY HARD TIME WITH THIS LAST NIGHT. SHE FELT LIKE SHE COULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE SHE IS SO FAR AWAY. BUT I KNOW SHE HAS 100% TRUST IN ME THAT I AM MAKING SURE ALICIA IS GETTING THE BEST CARE EVER AND SHE WILL BE HERE IN FOUR DAYS.

ALICIA IS SLEEPING NOW SO I BETTER DO THE SAME. I HAVE NOT SLEPT IN OVER 30 HOURS AND I AM SCARED TO CLOSE MY EYES INCASE SHE HAS ANOTHER SEIZURE. AND WHEN I DO CLOSE MY EYES ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT IS WHAT I JUST SEEN HER GO THROUGH.

THANKS AGAIN SO MUCH FOR EVERYONES PRAYERS!!!!!!!!
