Good News

Today we had a visit with Kai's neurologist.  I was full of apprehension about the visit because it had seemed like Kai's seizures were increasing, which would mean getting him started on an anti-seizure medication.

I described the symptoms I had been seeing with the doc, and with our combined knowledge, we were able to (mostly) rule out the symptoms as seizures!  Whoohooo! 

Kai has had a couple more valid seizures, however, and one of his nurses reported a possible seizure as recently as last week, so he's not out of the woods completely. For right now, since they don't seem to be occurring more frequently or increasing in duration, we are holding off on the medication. 

Scary stuff, I tell you, but overall, good news!
