Thanks everyone

Dad tells me that lots of you are praying for me and writing cool emails. Well things are moving much faster then we expected. I guess reducing my medicine really brings on the seizures. I have already had 2 strong ones (4 AM and 4:20 AM - which means Mom got no sleep.)

Dr. Szabo came by and was encouraged. He thinks they should preform a SPECT scanon me. Brain SPECT imaging is a nuclear medicine study that uses very small doses of radioisotopes to evaluate brain blood flow and activity patterns. SPECT is widely recognized as an effective tool for evaluating brain function in seizures and head trauma. There are hundreds of research articles on these topics (see www.brainplace.com for a list).
