Thurs Update

Hello all, we just got home from the Neurologist visit in Huntsville. And to say the least she was quite impressed with Dawson and his progress.

She just kept looking at him with this puzzled look and saying " WOW"

I rode all the way home with this big smirk on my face.

She wants to start decreasing the amount of ACTH. Not the number of shots he gets a week but a decrease in the amount of the ACTH itself.

She did not see the need to see us again next Thursday but instead made an appointment for Dec the 31st. We also tentavely talked about being back at Childrens Hospital at UAB the very beginning of the year. Probably the first week in January for another Video EEG. I have a feeling theres going to be some more puzzled looks when the EEG is read.

God has been good and our faith is stronger than ever. Continue to lift Dawson up in prayer and we love and thank you all!!!

Hey Guys,

WOW is right! What great news, huh! Looks like you guys are getting an early Christmas present and the best present ever! There's one thing I've learned over the years and that's that in the midst of extreme adversity to ask myself "God what's all this really about, what are you trying to show me, grow me, mold me in all of this? Please Holy Spirit reveal these things to me." I don't know where God's going with all this, but I do know He's got his healing hand on all over Dawson and has a future planned for all of you that is beyond your wildest expectations. There's 2 things that will get you through these tough times and that's your faith and your family. You've been blessed with an awesome dose of both!

Amen,

Uncle Jim
