Here's what happens when you have an EEG - when you're 3 anyway, not sure it would be quite so much fun for an older person (ignore the dates on the photos, Mummy got a bit confused)! First you have to wait in a waiting room with Mummy and Daddy.

Then they measure your head and make marks with a red pencil.
Then they attach all sorts of coloured wires. You can choose which colours to start with if you like!


Then there comes a funny hat to hold everything in place.

Then you get to lie down and they ask you to do things like close your eyes for 10 seconds, and blow a windmill and look at some flashing lights. Mostly though, you just have to lie there and have a rest.
When the hat and wires come off again you're just left with the glue and the wild woolly child hairdo! Ruby has a book about a wild woolly child who has hair that cannot be tamed or cut - today she looks just like her! 



Three days later and we're still trying to get the glue off her skin! Ah well, that's what happens when you have such amazing adventures at the hop-sital! (nothing obvious was seen on the scan, but we're waiting for it to be analysed and then see the specialist again. At the next visit, we understand there may be an ECG - recording the heart - so watch out for the next pictures!)
