Each time I think she can't possibly be more selfish, idiotic and actually stupid, she proves me wrong. I honestly don't understand how she can equate the neurologist wanting an updated EEG (which is, yes, annoying, but in the grand scheme of medical testing pretty non-invasive - I mean, it's not like they're wanting a lumbar puncture or bone marrow aspirate!) with them treating Lu like a guinea pig? Erin, they want data to inform treatment options FOR LUELLA. Just because you have given up on your daughter doesn't mean the medical professionals have.
She says that every EEG is worse, and nothing ever changes --- can someone smarter than me please make that make sense!? Poor, sweet Luella. He mum basically cannot be bothered any more. First she messes up Lu's only real chance of ever experiencing some seizure freedom by kicking the can down the road until surgery is no longer an option....and now she's basically refusing to do anything more because 'nothing will work, because nothing has ever worked, doctors don't know anything, they are treating Lu like a guinea pig' etc etc etc.
Treating Lu like a guinea pig would look like doing invasive testing that will not benefit Luella, but will benefit the greater good. The results of a simple video EEG will only be of any benefit to Lu. I don't know, I guess I'm just stuck on where this guinea pig nonsense came from? Like someone mentioned above, either the doctors do nothing, and she'll rage about how they have given up on Lu and don't care and are punishing Erin. Or the doctors squeeze Lu in and order a barrage of tests to hopefully get some new information that will result in new treatment options to improve Lu's quality of life, and Erin accuses them of treating Lu like a guinea pig. Like, what? I just can't make sense of this woman's brain.
