Update

Noah has made for a couple of crazy weeks. He started having siezures again two weeks ago. These siezures are different than the ones he has had in the past. His whole body twitches, he doesnt breath very good, drools, and winces his eyes. Brought him to the hospital thursday night and they increased his meds and did a medicine level check. Friday got the results of the levels and they were in the correct range but he was still having siezures. Took him to MMC again and we got there at 2pm. At 4pm we were told he was admitted, at 6pm we were told the bed was ready we just had to wait for a Pediatric doctor to come look at him, 8:30pm we were still in the ER and I told them that Noah gets siezure meds at 9pm and I didnt want the late can you order them. 10:15pm he still had not got meds and we were still in the ER. I went out to the nurse and said "where's his meds they are now an hr and 15 min late?) and she turned around with an attitude and said"Im doing my best to accomidate your needs..... I told her she wasnt and told her if his meds were not given to him by 10:45 we were leaving because he could get better care at home or a differnt hospital. Nobody came....we left./// we hadnt seen a dr. since 3:30pm.

He has been doing better. WE had a 24 hr EEG done last thursday thru Friday. The results showed abnormal epileptic waves on both the left and right sides of his brain but no real siezures. The neurological dr. says that the hospital is revising some equipment and it should be done by next month. Then he wants Noah to go into the hospital for three days to have an EEG done for that long to see if we can catch some real siezures,etc. Here is a picture of him all wrapped up for the test.




His other genetic testing came back normal. So we dont have to worry about that. Phew! But now there isnt anything more to test for. So we still dont know why he has these issues. So its comforting but frustrating at the same time.

I ended last term in school with a B+ average. Hip Hip Hooray! Now we will see how challenging two online classes are.

In the job category life isnt so good. I found out last week that as of Oct 4th I with 57 other employees are laid off. CLYNK is eliminating our positions and is going to be self service.... so now no pay check for me. I think Im going to try to watch a couple children in the home but I really dont know. MY schedule is pretty full with Noah and all his appts. I really dont know what to do.

But life is good. And Im really going to try to keep updating this better than I have been. I know a lot of you check it to see how our life is going. We love you and keep praying...the prayers are helping....

Last weigh in Noah weighed in at 23 lbs 4 oz!!!
