Weekly Update -- 15 - 21 July 2007

Yea, I'm 27 weeks old!

This week was actually interesting. Masinja had a seizure Thursday morning. We took him to the pedicatrician on Thursday, and then a pediatric neurologist on Friday.

The neurologist put him on phenobarbital to help control the seizures. She also ordered an MRI and an EEG. He'll probably have the tests in a couple of months, as she'd like him to actually be a little bigger. She said he was doing pretty well, and that she didn't feel a real urgency to put him through a lot of tests right now. If the meds don't work, she'll reattack and go from there. We'll keep you posted on his progress.

That's all for this week.

Peace,
T.M.
