Ally Update

Ally's prognosis as of right now is, if her blood pressure stays down past lunch and she has no seizures she will get to go home today!!YAY!!!!!!! They will know around 12:00-12:30. She will stay on the steroids for a while until all swelling goes down. The doctor has confirmed that Ally does have epilepsy. So with that diagnosis they will be dealing with it probably her whole life. She will start speech therapy next week and she will do it 3 times a week for about one year.  Wednesday of next week Joe and Lisa will bring Ally back to Oakland for another EEG and see her neurologist.  If she has changed courses and goes backwards they will admit her back into the hospital but Lisa said they are pretty confident that that is not going to happen.
First thing we need to Praise Jesus for his healing hand upon this little girl and that they received answers. The De Mont's have said several times that the waiting and the not knowing has been one of the hardest things.  Now they know what they are dealing with and what road they will have to take. Praise the Lord that they can all be together as a family again in their own home with Ally!
Things to pray for:
Pray that Ally's blood pressure stays down and she has no seizures so that they can come home and heal in their own environment.  Pray for Wednesday when she does her EEG that there is progress and that she can continue to heal at home. Pray for strength for Joe and Lisa as they will be caring for Ally at home just like in the hospital. Which means that 24 hour care needs to be given to her. 
I will update again this afternoon so that you all will know when she will be released.
Again the De Mont's thank you so much for all the prayers and support through this!!!!
