The seizure saga continues

Well, it's official that Ato T is having Tonic seizures. He has between 3 and 15 a day now, but they are thankfully short and not violent. They do however, make him tired. So he has been sleeping more than usual lately. We met with his Neurologist on Friday, and will be starting him on Keppra this week. From what we understand, there seems to be no exact science to figuring out what medication and how much will help him with his seizures. So, we're praying the first one takes and works well without side effects. We're blessed with a Neurologist who also believes that if a medication is causing side effects that interfere with daily living. Even though this is stressful for us, we are so thankful, because it could be so much worse. Thanks for all of your prayers!
