Tuesday Feb 12th

Hello Everybody!! Dawson has had a pretty good day. Two small clusters of about a dozen seizures each. During the second set of spasms, he did about 4 of them a little differently than we are use to seeing. He did like two quick jerks in a row, then second one almost in a backwards motion. Of course by the time I got back with a camera to record it, he stoped doing them and just continued with his usual spasms.

He is still in really great humor and sleeping better at night. He sleeps okay during the day, he really sleeps better next to someone if possible. We go Thursday to his Neuro and I am very nervous about this visit. We have so many questions to ask and I am worried she will want to send us to Birmingham for further testing. I would rather not put him through a bunch of testing if we can avoid it. He has already been through so much.

We ask that everybody continue to pray for him and for us. Sometimes I find it hard to stay positive, especially after Jeff gets me reading all kinds of things on the internet. Sometimes maybe ignorance is bliss. There are so many other stories out there, most of which talk about the child having some sort of developmental delays. It makes me sad to think that it could happen to Dawson. We have been Blessed that he is doing great so far. Everyday it seems that he is doing something new. He said "D" Sat morning, a new sound for him. He is such a joy!!!

Thanks for checking in on Dawson. We love you all and God Bless!!!!

Wow, Thanks for sharing the video. Kept looking for the subtitle..."Awesome Dawson". What an absolute little dude! He's so "full of it!". Have had all you guys in prayer and will be doing so especially Thursday.
