long overdue



It's update time. I know they are long, long overdue but it is summer time and these kiddo's of ours keep us going day and night!! So my last update was when Lucas has a seizure. Well, eight seizures. Many, many appoligies that I didn't take time out from our summer fun to let you all know he is fine. He is actually doing quite well. We have been seizure free since our stay at St. Louis Children's Hospital. He is on medicine twice a day, which he takes like a champ. (It must taste pretty good!) We had a follow-up trip to the neurologist's where they said he looked great! We increased his medicine to allow for his growth and after a quick look-see, we were able to leave. We did ask more questions that didn't occur to us before. Lucas will stay on his medicine for 2 years and then we will try to wean him. If he weans without seizures, he can stay off of the meds. If he has any seizure activity, he will be put back on them and possibly undergo more testing. We are hoping for option A! We follow-up with the doctor's every 6 months as long as we have no problems. And as you can see from the picture, he is perfect! Look for more updates soon! And thanks for all your thought and comments when Lucas was hospitalized. We appreciate them all!
