I often struggle with keeping up with C's blog. It's not that I don't have things I want to share it's just that there is not as much to "report" on. I am so grateful that Charlie Claire is so stable because I realize that is not guaranteed. Things also tend to seem so "normal" that I forget to appreciate all the little things she does every day that we once weren't sure if she would do. When Charlie was first diagnosed and I hopped on the internet to learn more about infantile spasms my search results were devastating. I searched high and low for a success story and at the time I did not come up with one. Once we were past C's surgery I told myself that I wanted this blog to be that ray of hope for another mama who found herself in the same situation as me. It is for that reason that I keep posting things and while I don't have much medical stuff to report on I do hope that if someone comes across this blog that they will have hope that everything is going to be ok...

So fun to watch her thrive! Thanks for the update. I think this will be encouraging for another mom or dad and I love that you recognize that.
