Seizures, A Week Early

Soren will be going in for testing at UCLA next Monday. During this time, we're actually going to want him to have seizures so we can see what's going on in the inside of his brain and on the outside of his body. Since Soren's had relatively good seizure control, I didn't know how we were going to induce the seizures.

Well, Soren decided to start a week early, having 2 seizures yesterday and 1 (so far) today. The first yesterday was done when he was with his respite worker, poor woman. The rest were with us. I've kept him home from school and am hoping today isn't a bad day.

I also hope that he actually repeats this performance next week. These seizures are quite awful and I really want them recorded by the EEG and video camera.
