The waiting game



Tonight finds us waiting on Dawson to have a big seizure. Doesn't that sound weird??

Allison and I were joking this afternoon about how much weve prayed for Dawson to stop having seizures and now here we are praying that he has one???? Its a good thing God knows exactly what we need because that could get confusing.

So we sit and we wait.

Dawson's neuro from Huntsville stopped by tonight to see him which was a surprise but we were glad to see her. She will be here tomorrow too, so we hope to talk more in depth about whats going on with our little guy.

They have decided to cut his meds some more tonight. He was on Keppra, Topamax, and Lamictal and as of tonight he is only taking a small dose of Lamictal. Kinda scary to cold turkey his meds like that but I trust they know what they are doing. They are as anxious to see one of these seizures as we are i think.

The good news is that Dawson has been in pretty good spirits for most of the day. Hes been pretty content to sit with us and watch videos with the occasional walking around the room. Its kinda like walking an untrained puppy on a short leash but were managing.

Pics... An EEG pic , and my dear niece Megan had a makeover. A big improvement dont ya think???

HA

Love you all

Jeff and Allison

There's definitely something going on in that EEG. I hope you get the big seizure you are looking for. Sometimes the new and unusual ones help you narrow in on the seizure focus. Best wishes.
