T.G.I.F

Whew what a week!! It seems at though we have been running at 120 mph this week and are hoping for a restful weekend. My oldest two will be home this weekend and so 2 kids become 4 and the reality of a restful weekend is honestly just wishful thinking. I wouldn't trade it for anything though!!!

Just a quick update as things around here are still about the same.

Fevers are gone but snotty noses, sniffles, and coughs echo throughout the house. Dawson, Madison, and Allison all got their hair did this week ( pics coming soon.)

Seizures are definitely better this week compared to last so maybe the Zonegran is starting to prove itself useful. He had his first increase two days ago ( Deb, we are giving it to him at bedtime) and although he is still having seizures, number wise, they are much improved ( heading in the right direction we pray)

Mood wise is following suit with the seizures. Don't know if its because when we went up on the Zonegran, we went down on the Keppra ,or possibly fewer seizures = fewer outburst. They are also known as " freak out sessions" " going off the deep end" " having a come apart" and
" flipping out." Either way, his mood is better and that in itself is a blessing from God.

We have also noticed that some of these episodes come on so fast its almost like he is in pain, such as tummy pain or gas pains. We have started to give him some stuff for that and although its too early to tell, it seems to be helping too.

So I thank you God for this past week, and I pray for continued healing in my son's body.

We wish you all a great weekend

Our love to you

Jeff and Allison
