As I posted before, Hewitt's seizure streak was broken last Wednesday while my Dad was watching him. Since then, he has continued to gradually have more seizures. Friday morning he had a big seizure in bed with us, we had to use the emergency meds to stop it which we've never had to do before. We were a minute away from having to call 911.
Before we went to sleep the night before, we talked about how wierd it would be to see a big one since it's been over 3 weeks since he had one. That is a praise. But, now he's had 2 more since Friday and thankfully they've stopped themselves. They continue to increase but we go in tomorrow to meet with the neuro again. I do not like the second medication she has added. He has been having odd side effects that leave us very uneasy: anger, aggression, sadness, wierd thoughts. Not to mention, the increased seizures this last week. If anything significant changes after tomorow, I will let you know.
She prescribed him for a helmet this week. We have mixed feelings about it, but know that we should probably do it for his safety. He had a drop on the concrete Monday night and nailed the back of his head pretty hard. Poor baby. He braves it all very well though and is very tough!
love. life. faith.
