The Day we've been waiting for
Today we went to Huntsville to have an EEG for Dawson. His neuro ( and we) were anxious to see what his EEG looked like since his seizures have stopped. The hook up process was the smoothest its ever been. As a matter of fact, this is the first time we didnt have to hold him down and fight with him. The Tech at our Neuro's office is the best. We have had this process done so many times at so many different places and there is just no comparison to this lady. She actually got Dawson to help her throughout the process which kept him engaged. He was all hooked up in just a matter of a few minutes and he went right to sleep right on cue.
You just couldn't have asked for any better.
Without further delay, I am proud to announce that Dawson's EEG was completely NORMAL!!!
I can't even begin to describe all the feelings and emotions Allison and I have gone through over the past few hours. Just 42 days ago we were in a hospital in Memphis with a little boy who was having countless seizures daily. 42 short days ago we were there looking at an EEG that was just a mess. An EEG that showed total chaos and constant seizure activity in his brain. 42 days ago we were being told that he needed a portion of his brain removed to give him the best chance of a seizure free life.. and today...
We are celebrating not only seizure freedom, but a completely normal EEG
I knew from watching him this past month that his EEG was going to be improved. I may can not see inside his brain, but I see how fast he is catching up and how he is learning in leaps and bounds.. But i wasn't prepared for this.. So today we cried tears of joy on our way home from a Doctors visit instead of tears of sorrow.
You need proof that we serve a God who is alive and well and still preforms miracles????
Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you Dawson!! A seizure free little boy who in our minds is a warrior.. Who has battled and fought his way through thousands of seizures since he was two months old. Our hearts are litteraly soaring tonight.. Today is conformation of prayers answered.
We have no idea what tomorrow holds for us and we are taking this new journey one day at a time. This is just the best news we could have ever hoped for. Thank you for taking a minute to celebrate with us!! Your prayers have helped make this day possible.
Our love to all
Jeff and Allison
