Dawson is doing really good today. He is sleeping a lot and getting caught back up from his journey's in Atlanta. We got concerned about his incision site last night as it looked like the wound was actively bleeding underneath the bandage. Allison replaced the bandage today and everything seems fine right now. Still no seizures today either!!!! HOORAY
Now for the bad news... We found out today that Katelin ( my 6 year old) has juvenile diabetes.
She had to be taken to Childrens Hospital in Huntsville today to get insulin. Her sugar levels are through the roof and they are at this very moment trying to get her sugar levels down. I remember the feeling that we had upon finding out Dawson having Infantile Spasms and now those feelings are back again today. A lifetime of daily insulin injections, blood levels constantly being checked, special diets. I feel so badly for her right now.
So we open a new chapter in our lives ,and we move on and do exactly what ever it is we need to do to make sure she has a very long and happy life. And i used to think my life was boring.. HA!
Please keep Katelin in your prayers as you pray for Dawson and I will keep the family updated on her as I find out.
We love you
Jeff and Allison

Well, well , well...... our patience in understanding the bigger plan continues, doesn't it? I imagine you felt a little taken out at the knees again today and began the question/ answer session with Him . I know for sure I'll be having a little sit down session myself when I get where I am ( hopefully) getting to one day! We add Katelin to our prayers and the rest of you as you begin this latest leg of the journey.
