There was not much change in Lexi's status from this morning through tonight. Lexi had four seizures total today. They did an EEG on her to watch her brain waves and found no abnormalities. The doctors then did an CT Scan and found that she had blood between her skull and her brain. It is called Subdural Hematoma. This is not blood on the brain and her brain is not swollen, so it is better news. The doctor stated that the blood should dissapate after a while. Lexi's surgery and recovery for her heart is still going very well. Lexi's blood pressure is also doing very well, but spikes when she is having the seizures. The EEG that they did today was an hour long EEG, so they did not see the seizure when it happened. They are going to do a 24 hour EEG to see if they can understand more if Lexi would have another seizure. We also have a MRI scheduled for tomorrow to better look at Lexi's head.
Prayer requests:
Please continue to pray for Lexi's seizures and recovery.
These have been very trying days. We, especially Cherie, would really be encouraged by SOME steps forward tomorrow. Right now Lexi is very sedated and we would love to see some "normal" baby activities.
Also, continue to pray for our families and friends as they are traveling back and forth to Columbus.
Thank you all for your much needed prayer!

Jon and Cherie...if you need any info on seizures. give me a call.....Some meds for me give me MORE seizures than normal. I personally wouldn't let them take the EEG wires off til the capture the seizure. It's the only way to get answers.
Seriously PRAYING for you all. I know people say they have been there but we truly have. GOD BLESS YOU ALL and bring some promising news. St Paul's is praying for you again TODAY!!!!!
GOD PLEASE BRING HEALING TO LEXI AND STRENGTH TO THE ENTIRE FAMILY WHO IS BEING STRETCHED TO THEIR LIMITS PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY!
AMEN!!

The "Geyer Girls" are all praying for you Alexis. We are praying for your Mommy and Daddy to have strength from the Lord. We are praying for blessings and wisdom for all those who are giving you care and a part of themselves.
God is good all the time, all the time God is good.
Love and prayers for all of you.
Jon & Cherie,
We pray for you daily and look for updates many times throughout the day. It is so hard to see such a little baby going through this but it is all part of God's plan and things will work out! We pray not only for Alexis but also for strength for you both and healing for Cherie from her c-section. We are also keeping Holly and Cherie's parents in prayer for their struggling time also. The twins are so young that this is all hard for htem to understand. If you need anything down there or up here even if it is cooking for family or cleaning or watching the girls for a bit please call or email us! We love you. Brittney & Clint Rettig
We are continuing to pray for you throughout the day and even during the nights as well. We can't wait to see you on Saturday and we are trusting God to bring you through this fully recovered and a healthy little girl.
Hugs and Kisses, Uncle Bill and Aunt Amy
