My Tia in the Hospital

My great-aunt Isis is in the hospital. We've been here since 9 am. She keeps having seizures. Three so far today. Its almost 6 pm and they still don't know why. Every test has come back normal. Well, as normal as an 83 year old with advanced stage Alzheimer's can be. She is very healthy and no other illness. We are all praying very hard and I know all my prayer warriors out there are too. She has been admitted until a neuro comes to see her and they can figure out what is causing the seizures. She is on anti seizure meds now so I don't think she will have another tonight. Ed is coming to relieve me for a little bitt so I can deal with the little one and as soon as I have her home and in bed I will be back. On a happy note, I did manage to get one of our trees up last night and will post pictures soon. Please keep my aunt in your prayers. Specifically that they find the cause of the seizures tonight and that she can go home tomorrow. The elderly and hospitals is not a good mix. They need the visits to be brief. I have seen first hand what lengthy hospital stays does to them and how they regress.
