We survived Nik’s ambulatory EEG! My little man? A total trooper. He tolerated all the electrodes and tape and goo for a full twenty-four hours. It wasn’t all rainbows and unicorns but it was so much better than any of his previous EEG’s.
We won’t have results until next week after the neurologist has had a chance to review the data. Our money is on the results showing no seizure activity but we’re bracing ourselves just in case we’re wrong. If we’re right, we get to celebrate two years of Nik being seizure-free! According to our neurologist, that’s pretty much the benchmark for declaring that Nik is not at risk for a later recurrence of his seizures.
I’d say we’re due for a mark in the win column, wouldn’t you? Because, seriously, while this is awfully darn cute,
I think Nik would be just as happy not to have to repeat it any time in the foreseeable future.



I’d say we’re due for a mark in the win column, wouldn’t you?

Fingers and toes crossed for a win! By the way, LOVE having you back here on a regular basis!!
Yep, you’re due for a win! I can’t even describe the relief I felt when Patrick officially “outgrew” his epilepsy. My fingers and toes are crossed for you as well.

Hoping, hoping, hoping!

Thinking of you guys!! Keeping our fingers crossed till we hear some good news next week.
Oh Nik did such a fantastic job, Diego would have lost his mind with all of those electrodes and goo!! Our sleep deprived EEG was a nightmare. I can’t wait to hear the results, it is so tiem for a win.
You’re totally due for a mark in the win column!
THanks for visiting my blog!
Unoriginally crossing fingers and toes, too!
Great great news—fingers crossed here. And kudos for Nik for doing _such_ a great job!
Fingers crossed!!!
I’m hoping for the best news along with you. He’s so cute with his cap on and investigating the area around him.
He is awfully cute, but I agree: you are due for good news. Crossing fingers and thinking of you!
