Countdown to Tomorrow Morning's EEG

Sadie is having an EEG at the children's hospital tomorrow morning to see if she is having absence seizures (3-5 second staring spells). She has to stay up until midnight tonight and get up at 6am. She has to be tired for the test and take a short nap during the test. This will be her second EEG. The first was done when she was 14 months old following a febrile seizure. They hook about 20 wires to her scalp with glue to measure her brain waves. She will be strapped to a bed and we hope she will fall asleep for at least 10 minutes of the test.
