It has been awhile since I updated everyone on Brock's status. Things have been going really good for him! This has been the longest stretch he has ever had of being "well". He had one bout with a cold a few weeks back, but he recovered fairly well and only had some small seizures during that time. He has been having small seizures and/or night terrors again at night. We did some more blood work yesterday to check his trileptal levels in his blood. Once we get those results we will be able to determine if we need a medication change or not. Our thinking is that the neurologist is going to put him in the hospital to do another video EEG in the EMU (epilepsy monitoring unit). That is never fun, but Brock is fairly cooperative and enjoys flirting with the nurses. Other than that, he is enjoying being a normal boy for a change! He knows that things are a little different with him right now....he occassionally will ask me "when will I be sick?" Since that has been a very common occurrence for him, he feels like it could happen at any time.
We're not sure what is causing him to have such good health right now. His doctor is just as stumped as we are! We will just continue with his current medications until we are told otherwise....we have orders to notify the molecular immunologist as soon as there is ANY change. Thank you for all the prayers and well wishes for Brock! They must be doing wonders.....we can only hope and pray that maybe his rough times are behind him....but only God knows....
