This may just be one of my most exciting posts, yet!! In the past 6 days Christian has only had 2 big seizures! He went 3 and half days without any big ones , then had 2 on friday and hasn't had any big ones since then. When I say "big ones" I mean the kind where he falls asleep afterwards because they are so tuff on him. Let me remind you that he has had seizures since he was 7 months old everyday. He's had the big ones everyday, multiple times (3-4)a day for about 9 months. As a parent they are difficult to watch and heartbreaking. We have tried multiple medicines and as many of you know took him to Kansas City for hyperbaric treatment. These seizures basically keep him from making much progress in therapy because he would have one during or before and be lethargic or fall asleep.
We have prayed everyday for this (that his seizures would stop) and filled out i don't even know how many cards at church. We give God the glory for anwsering prayers. He is faithful and is always on time. Thank you all so much for your prayers, just know that if you said even 1 prayer for Christian's seizures they were heard.
Eric and I are just overjoyed at the "new" Christian. The changes were obvious the first day he didn't have any. He is much more verbal, energetic, laughs at different things, chewing his food better (eating a whole muffin), wanting to stand and walk in his walker, takes a normal time nap. It is amazing! Eric found this scripture during the middle of all of this and I thought it was appropriate. --Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. 1 Peter 4:12-13
We are back in kansas city to do more hyperbaric treatment. Christian still has his "bouncy" seizures as we call them. They are minor compared to the others but we are still praying that these go away too. Thank you to all of you!!!!!

Robyn ~ Great news, God is so good and he never gets tired of us saying, "Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!"
Robyn, Christian looks sooo good! He is such a handsome boy and I can't keep from touching his hair every time I get close enough. He is so lucky to have parents who seek God for guidance every day for his care! What a team...a BIG God and AMAZING parents!
