New Years Eve Update

Happy New Year's Eve to all our family and friends.

We just returned home from a visit with Dawson's neurologist in Huntsville. She continues to be very impressed with his progress. She says " He looks Very good." We can see she is excited about how well he is doing, and we can also see she is showing some restraint when it comes to saying too much about it. I can understand her not wanting to put any false hope there until she sees his next EEG.

Speaking of which... We are not able to get to UAB in the time frame she wants us there because there is not a bed available for him until the end of January. So instead she has arranged for us to be in Crestwood Hospital in Huntsville. That works out better for us because its not as far a drive and also she will be the one who will be monitoring his VEEG. We will have results the next morning, so we won't have to wait for them.

The VEEG will be This Thursday evening and we will leave sometime Friday morning.

We have also seen his seizures disappear again since we upped the Keppra dosage. She told us to stay on his current dosage until she gets his EEG.

All is well and God continues to bless and amaze us through this child.

Jeff and Allison
