We Seem To Be Going In The Right Direction

It has been up and down a little the last few days. It appeared that Sarah caught a little cold over the weekend. She was snotty and coughing. She recovered quickly and was able to go to school today. When I picked her up from school today everyone was telling me how fast she is getting around. I think she goes a little too fast sometimes. She throws caution to the wind.

Dr. Franz wants us to start bringing her down off the Trileptal. I think since seizure medications never stopped any seizures there really is no reason to keep her on them long term. It was just to keep the irritation down on the other hemisphere. Her digestion seems to be getting better. We are going to try and back off a little on the medicine she takes for that. Our plan is to have her medication free by the end of the year (or maybe the end of summer).

I was talking to a friend at work. I am always trying to get new pictures for the blog, but there is only so many pictures of Sarah sitting on the couch I want to take. It just seems like when I get home from work she is already exhausted from school and therapy.


Sarah just chill’n


Ava is too cool for this scene

 
Look, they are all together and not driving each other crazy

    It is so uplifting to see this child’s strength shine through. God truly delivers miracles, and Sarah is certainly one of them. Today is my birthday, and it has been a rough day here in my life. I just want to thank you all for the pictures of the children that you posted. They are all adorable. In all honesty, they are the only things today that has put a smile on my face.

    May God continue to bless each of you.
