We took both the kids to the doctor on Friday, Paige for her chicken pox shot and Karter for his six month shots. Kurt and I were feeling very aprehensive about getting the shots done becasue two weeks after his first shots he started having seizures and two weeks after his second shots he started having the spasms, so understandably with him doing so well we did not want anything to mess that up. In the end our doctor decided that there would be no harm in waiting a while, especially since we will see the epileptologist this Thursday and have another EEG. When he came in to see Karter we explained how well he was doing and that the spasms had stopped and that he had one siezure in a month adn that he was only on one medication a day. He was shocked and looked at us and said "Miracle?" "That's what we are believing for" I said. "They happen sometimes" he said.
I just wanted to share that becasue it was a really encouraging report. This Thursday is a big day for us as you know from previous posts. I have asked the Lord to give us closure this week. My pray is that the EEG comes back normal and that the doctors are astounded at his progress. We obviously feel that surgery will not be needed at this time and hopefully ever.
I will post the results before I leave for Edmonton. Thanks for your prayers and for holding us up in this tough time
