Update

After a rough night of sleep all around C had some seizures this morning and she had one of the new ones that we were trying to get info on.

The good news...they are not spasms!!! Thank you Jesus! Other good news, they seem to be coming from the same general area. The rest of Charlie Claire's EEG looked great and they were super pleased with what they are seeing.

Bad news...in order to try and pinpoint exactly where seizures are coming from they are doing a dye test tomorrow morning. This means an IV (code for screaming baby), withholding some meds and waking C up at about 5am. The lack of meds and sleep should hopefully guarantee a seizure. Once the seizure starts they wait about 8-15 seconds and then inject the dye. We are also waiting to get C's lamictal level back from the blood they took yesterday. Depending on what the dye test shows and what the lamictal level is will determine if/when we start discussing surgery.

In other exciting news...Jackson is FINALLY getting his FIRST tooth!!!!
