Mary Scovell
This morning, Monday 27 October, Mary experienced seizures. Because of the seizures the doctors moved her back to the ICU where she can be monitored 24 hours a day. There is a nurse always assigned to watch Mary on a video screen. She has been treated with ativan and cappra. The seizures have now stopped and Mary is sleeping very comfortably and in no apparent pain. She breathes very easily and is receives a very low amount of Oxygen to aid her breathing. Mary is being cared for by a very large and concerned number of doctors, nurses, and other staff. The neurologists will make a plan for this week and they are talking about another MRI & Cat scan to help them come up with a diagnosis in what has become a very unusual case. They are hoping for a prognosis by the end of the week. Meanwhile your help and concern for Mary is helping us get through these very trying times.
Thanks to all of you for all your thoughtfulness.
Jack & Sue

I'm sorry to hear about this setback. It must be frustrating, but know that everyone is continually keeping you in thought and prayer. I hope the diagnosis comes soon so that a plan will be put in place. In the meantime, it's good to hear that she is comfortable and breathing well. Keep on keeping on.
Wishing you hope & comfort in the midst of uncertainty today. You are continually in my thoughts and prayers. It's a good thing she's not in pain while breathing--I'm sorry about her seisures & will hope for the best--I hope a plan is in place soon too; not knowing must be trying...
So sorry to hear about Mary's setback. Linda filled me in with all of the information the other day after talking with Sue. I continue to keep Mary in my prayers and hope that she remains comfortable during this difficult and trying time.
