FRUSTRATING SEIZURES...

Sam's seizures have increased again and we are in need of prayers right now for some answers. His medication has been increased three times already this fall and he has not had a decrease in seizure activity yet. We do have oxygen at home now which is a comfort for us. Last Wednesday Sam had a CT and an EEG which resulted in a very long day in the hospital. He had difficulty waking from the sedation medication and also had 7 seizures, none of which were during the time he was hooked up to the EEG, of course! His EEG was abnormal as expected, and it showed that he was having a lot of seizure activity and probably more seizures than we are recognizing. The doctors are kind of puzzled right now as to where they should go next. Please pray for Sam's team of doctors, a decrease in seizures for Sammy and patience and strength for Jeff and myself. God Bless you all and thanks for your continued prayers and support!

Fall Festival at CCHS

Chef Sam had a fun time at the Fall Festival at Children's Care. Some of the kids participated in growing the veggies and caring for them throughout the summer. The result was a fall party full of vegetable fun! The kids decorated their own shirts and the staff dressed up complete with Sam's friend Kathie turning into a human carrot! Sam tried homeade vegetable soup and smelled lots of herbs! Daddy even stopped in for a surprise visit!


Grandma and Grandpa are Home!





Grandma and Grandpa went on a journey out west to Glacier National Park, up through Banf Canada and back down through Idaho returning home after two weeks of fun! We were all very happy to see each other, but I think Sam was the most excited of all!!!
