Asking for Prayers

So I normally am not the type of person that asks for this, but we had a bit of a scare last night...Lola fell off the bed. She was taken to Banner Estrella Hospital by ambulance and treated there. Chad called me on the way home from school last night (we had open house) and said to meet him there. They ran a ct scan to make sure everything was ok. She had vomited and was acting drowsy right after it happened, prompting Chad to call, and they thought they had better run the scan to be safe. Good news is that she has not been injured by the fall was showing no signs that were a cause for concern. After the initial getting there and her being scared, she was back to the same old smiley Lola before we left! Along with the good news, came some bad, and was a cause for concern. They said that with the technology today, they did see something, but what it is exactly they don't know. They found a 3 mm spot on her brain that they said could be from an old fall (she hasn't ever fallen before) or something from when she was born that went undetected, a brain hemorrhage, or it could be nothing. So we left the hospital with a very uneasy feeling in our stomaches not having a clear cut answer. I have to take her to the pediatrician today where I will get a referral to see a neuro specialist. Hopefully they will be able to give us more answers. As I know more, I will keep updating, but in the meantime, I am asking for prayers for Lola in the hopes that she will be ok from whatever this little dot on her brain might be.

Hi love- I just wanted to remind you of what happened to my mom a couple months ago. They told her she had at least 2 tumors on her brain. When she went to get a 2nd opinion, the specialist saw NOTHING & had no idea what the previous Dr. was talking about? Try to stay calm in the mean time- until you can actually see a specialist for a definite answer. Please let me know if you need anything at all, and I will keep you & Lola in my prayers. I love you!

I just wanted to let you know Lola and you all will remain in our prayers. I am sure it will be nothing to worry about. She is a little ray of sunshine and a trooper. I have no doubts that she will be just fine!! Jayla sends her love too. You know we are always here for you no matter what it is.
We love you!!
