Lola starts SCHOOL!

Lola started working with her Developmental Aide, Deannie, on Sept 8. She has been doing great things! She is much more steady on her feet, and has taken several steps to us on many occasions. She is eating tons, and we are 100% not using her g-tube at all. Wow.

Last week we went to ACH to have an EEG done, as well as a visit to Lola's neurologist. She did great during the EEG, and even fell asleep as she was supposed to. Unfortunately, she did have a seizure while we were there. Well, actually it's a good thing that it was caught on the EEG - but a bad thing that she had it. It was not detectable to the eye - they watched it several times on the video monitor, and she's just happily chewing her toy with a smile on her face. Anyway, they figure that she's grown so much that she outgrew her Trileptal dosage. So it's being upped and hopefully it'll make the seizures stop. Since we changed the dosage, she's slept through the night twice, and she's happier and less grouchy. We go back in a few weeks for another EEG.
