are you sitting down?

Spoke with Lars' epileptologist tonight & the EEG Lars had done a week & a day ago was his first normal EEG ever. Ever.

Of course he's been having what we think are seizures every couple weeks--four today at school before I picked him up for inconsolable crying & turning blue--but at least when he's not seizing he's grown into a somewhat regular brain rhythm. Woah. Mind blowing.

Lars' doc wants to do a 48-hour test to look for seizure activity, or what we think is seizure activity, so that we can determine if it is or not. Lars had to be wrapped up like a burrito for this EEG so he wouldn't pull the leads out; first time they've done that. Michelle & I took lots of pictures & will post them shortly, as soon as we get done having the ^%$#@&* stomach flu that Lars had last week. Luckily Andey hasn't had it over at her place, and Joa only got a very mild version.

Tomorrow's Lars' big IEP meeting at Perkins; I baked apple cake for the event. I'm so domestic.
