Thank you to everyone who has been sending words of encouragement and prayers for Sam and our family! Sam had another seizure on Monday night lasting about four minutes. We visited with his Dr.'s office on Tuesday morning and it was agreed to switch medications. He is now off of the med that we used for 2 1/2 years and on two new seizure meds. We will ramp up the dose over the next three weeks and then check blood work in the fourth week. We are hopeful that this will be the answer to getting the seizures controlled.
We went out to the disability expo this evening hoping to find something to aid in lifting Sam out of the bath tub. He is a slippery heavy little guy when wet! We are also in the process of purchasing a canopy bed for Sam that will allow him a safe environment to be in at night. The sleeping issues are not improving and we hope that this bed will help with that issue. Sam is using a walker in therapy and seems to be really enjoying walking and making some progress. We are so thankful to see this, as we have seen quite a bit of regression since the seizures began again. Thank the Lord for giving us some reassurance in this area!
