Test Results

Results are in - Jack is completely normal and healthy. So far there is no explanation for the seizures. If he has another one, then he will have to have another EEG and probably start seizure medication. They also gave us gel to squirt in his bum if he has a seizure that lasts 5 minutes. This will help it not be a prolonged seizure. Hopefully we will never have to use it. And that's it. So, who knows how likely it will be if he is going to have another one or what caused these ones. It appears there is no damage done though. It is really good news but still does not leave me completely satisfied in terms of answers of how this started and will it continue.

The kids were awesome yesterday on the car ride. It was 3 hrs one way. Since we were there, we went to IKEA and looked around. Tomorrow Jack is turning 2. We are in search of a big boy bed. And then sis is going to be kicked out to her own room. We are totally excited!

Such a good report! I hope, since it is nothing major, he will just grow out of them....

That's good news! I'm sorry I didn't talk to you guys more this evening (Sun) but Preston cut his lip and was in need of some attention. Hope the birthdays went well!

I am so glad to hear that news! May you never need the gel...

Good luck on the big boy bed! We waited a long time to put Max in one (3 years old!) and we bought a bunk bed for him then. It worked wonders and he never tried to get out because he got to choose whether he wanted the top bunk or bottom bunk- so that was his choice (instead of whether to be in the bed or out of the bed :)! ) I hope he loves it!
