That's good, Ken.
Sometimes, it's just almost impossible to find a problem and correct it, as we've found with working on cars. It is a LOT tougher tho, when it's a living person, especially a loved one. I've heard the "We really don't know for sure what it is..." so many times with both my Dad & my Mother.
Hopefully, she will get better, with no "relapse", or other painfull setback.
We will continue to pray for her & your family.
And, as always, we're here, if there's anything we can do for her or yourself.

Our prayers are with you.

My wife had a similiar episode this past summer while at work at the
hospital. She collapsed into convulsion then went limp with no pulse and
wasn't breathing. Luckily she was at work and a doctor from ICU was
near by and immediatly started taking care of her. She is with me today
because of it. They did MRI, CAT scan, EEG, and a battery of other tests
to numerous to mention here, and some I haven't even heard of.
Unfortunatly/fortunatly (depends on your outlook) everything came back
normal. We still thank God that it happened were it happened. We really
are praying for you and your wife and hope that you both weather this
storm as well we are.

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!

Now it's Friday night.

My wife recovery from the last episode is better than I expected.  She is already by my guess about 80% back to where she was before this happened.  From barely being able to stand upright on Wed, tonight she very gently walked to the Minivan, and we went to K Mart.  She rode the electric cart around the store.

I'm also told the MRI the took at this time shows the infection in her brain is 50% smaller than the last MRI.  I think I can sleep okay tonight.

Sorry to hear Ken, hope the Mrs. gets much better. My mother has a few problems with ehr lower back, foot, and legs. If one goes off, they all usually go off. She went to the doctor, and they found nothing as well. I guess modern medicine is still behind.
