Tuesday's MRI


Well we will be in Iowa City Tuesday, May 4th for another follow-up MRI for Ellie. This time it is going to be a stealth MRI which is a 12 minute one. We are going to try to just give her some oral meds to help her calm down and have her try it without general anesthesia. They will have to use contrast to get pictures so we are also hoping she lets them do the IV for that. We need huge prayers from 8-9am Tuesday. This is the time where we are preping her for the procedure. She has a special way she wants to sit on our lap and put her arm out and turn her head. Then have one of us cover her eyes so she doesn't look at them putting the IV in. She will have cream on her arm first to numb it so it's not really going to hurt. If this is what is going to help we will do it for sure. We will try this tomorrow and hope it all goes well. If I get a chance I'll post a quick update on facebook the results of the MRI and then blog about it later. Thanks all for your prayers.
