Some things change, some things stay the same

Well...it was an interesting day negotiating with the insurance company with the result that Adam will stay as an in-patient for at least one more day. That will be really helpful, as the Wednesday activities with the neuropsychologist were going to be the most difficult to switch over to an out-patient status. So, Wednesday will start with an inter-ictal scan (the companion piece to the ictal scan--this time without having to catch a seizure), and then Adam will spend the rest of the day with the neuropsychologist. They want to establish a baseline in case surgery is determined to be the treatment path that is eventually pursued.

During the time that we were trying to figure out if we would stay or go (which consumed most of the day), arrangements were made for us to stay at the local Ronald McDonald House which is within walking distance of the hospital. We decided to go ahead and take the room, as it would allow us to have one parent in the room with Adam overnight, and one at the Ronald McDonald House. That way neither one of us will need to sleep in a chair tonight (we've each had a turn at that already), and if we move tomorrow, we'll already have that arranged.

So we shall see what new and exciting things will occur tomorrow. Stay tuned, as it may be possible that Doctor Monkey will make a repeat appearance! Until then...
