Elisa’s Sleep Study

Last night, Elisa had her sleep study done at a branch of CHOP in King of Prussia. She’s been having pains in her leg(s) for a while, and we wanted to make sure she didn’t have her Mom’s ‘restless legs.’ The test went well, and like all the rest of the tests that Elisa takes, she passed with flying colors.

We arrived around 7:00pm, and were shown to our “suite,” which turned out to be a hospital “stall.”  Elisa got settled in her bed, with a TV dangling in front of her (she was in heaven 🙂 )  while I (tried) to make myself comfortable on my bed/chair, until the nurse came in to hook up Elisa.  Since she was the oldest of the 4 kids having a study done, she was the last to get ‘plugged-in.’  After over an hour, she was finally ready for sleep at 10pm.

She & Dad slept surprisingly well, and the Nurse only needed to come in and adjust wires a couple times during the night. We were awaken a 6am to the screams of the 4 yr.old protesting to the way the stickers were being torn off him.  Elisa was a trouper, no screams, and we were soon out of there – home in time for breakfast with Mama by 7:30 am!

    HEy Elisa,

    Toen ik jou op de foto’s zag moest ik terug denken aan kleine Kaat & Lucas als baby. Toen zij 6 weken oud waren hebben ze alle twee zo’n slaaptest moeten doen (wiegedood). Al die kabeltjes en dan zo’n netje over je hoofd 😉

    Verder alles ok?
    kaat heeft net haar rapport gekregen: 76,2 %. goed hé.
    Lucas weet zijn uitslag pas na de vakantie!
    Hij is nu vakantiejob aan het doen in Delhaize.
    Volgende week geeft hij tennisles…
    Kaat en ik gaan ondertussen shoppen 😉 , want nonkel wim is naar Italië tot zondag.

    Hou jullie goed, groetjes, tante leen xxx

    Dag tante Leen,
    ja, alles goed met Elisa…we weten de uitslag van de dokter in een paar weken maar de verpleegster denkt dat alles goed is. De meisjes hebben spijtig genoeg geen 2 weken verlof – slechts 3 dagen…Wenst Kaat maar proficiat met haar uitslag!
