What a morning!!

We had Jackson's sleep deprived EEG this morning. We had to keep him up an extra 2 hours last night and then wake him up at 3:30 this morning and make sure he did not fall back to sleep. Then we had to drive to Milwaukee (still making sure that he stayed awake) to start his test at 7:45 am.

They hooked him up to all his wires and we brought all his good stuff (monkey, pillow, ipod, white noise)so he could sleep. But it can take him quite a while to get to sleep and I was afraid they were going to run out of time with the test before he fell asleep which would mean that we would have to repeat it another day. He finally (after about 1 hour) fell asleep and they were able to get what they needed from the test...yay!! We will not have the results for 7-10 days though.

I can not believe he did not sleep at all on the way back home!!!
