Our little corner of the woods has been busy as usual. Kiddos going back to school, life stuff, home stuff, seizure counting stuff, ect ect
Dawson is doing really well. We are slowly coming off the Keppra and already I can tell that he is in a better mood for the most part. He still has these little outburst but nothing as bad as it was.
Seizure count still about the same. He has good days and bad days. on a good day he will have about 20 or so on a bad day... 100 plus. We hate bad days!! As a matter of fact we hate the good days too because he is still having them. But We know God has a plan, and we are so honored to be part of it!!!
So here's the cool thing... All these seizures, and there is still no slowing him down. As a matter of fact this week he has had a language burst. Meaning he has started saying all kinds of new words. Some of the words he is saying is his own variation of that word, but he knows what hes trying to say, and we also know for the most part what hes talking about. The important thing is that he IS communicating.
AND.. as funny as it sounds. Last night ( and again today) he counted to three. We were eating Skittles and he pulled them aside one at a time and did " one, two, three" Allison and I just looked at each other and were like.. Did he really just do that??
So even though seizures are still abundant, God continues to show us just how truly amazing he really is.
Thank you for your prayers!! We want these seizures to stop again and we remain faithful in the thought that once again Dawson will be free.
Our love goes out to all of you.
Jeff and Allison

I'm sorry to hear the seizure count isn't going down, but I'm thrilled that the Lord is showing out on Dawson's behalf! Seeing that even when the bad stuff happens (like seizures returning) that God's goodness still prevails--ie, Dawson's not just surviving, he's thriving!--it really helps me worry less about the stuff we're facing! Thanks for the faith booster! Love ya, JnV:)
