Another busy day here at Presby!
The Cardiologist came by and said that Ron's echo/stress test looked good, no problems there. They will continue to keep him on the heart monitor through tonight though. Then neurologist was in to do an evaluation and ordered an MRI of his head and neck and also has set him up for a 24 hour EEG. I wish I was able to download the photos off my phone so you could see how he looks with all those probes coming out of his head, quite comical. He has to wear these continually for the next 24 hours. It also has a video monitor recording him...looking for any signs of seizures. And he's had a multitude of blood draws.
Ron is so ready to be out of here. It's been difficult to have to miss out on all the family activities of the weekend. On Friday, the family had a pool party celebrating Papa's 90th birthday with 27 family members scheduled to attend. Then today, we were all going to the Texas Tech/Baylor game at the new Cowboy Stadium.
Other than being tired he's feeling ok and thinks all the tests are unnecessary; so what, he just passed out and was unresponsive for about 1/2 an hour...what's the big deal? He'll just have to suck it up, though, because he'll be here at least until Monday.
Nothing else to report from here. Good night all!
