Hallelujah! Great news from the doctor today! After reading the data from the seizure this morning, an origination area was found and it is quite small, which the doctor said is very good! They were then able to see how the seizure progressed, how long it took and what other areas of the brain it spread to over the 30 minutes. She said that there are 2 other areas that they are interested in taking a look at in addition to the one origination area. The hope is that he will have another seizure today or tomorrow so that they have even more data to read. If all goes well, they will do the cortical stim on Monday which will tell them if the area(s) they have marked can be safely removed without causing deficit.

A big THANK YOU to James and Kathy who came bearing home-made cookies and magazines this afternoon! And for the yummy treat from Miracle Mile deli -- their world famous hot pastrami sandwiches!!!! We are very blessed!
