another website highlight

Two websites I'd encourage you to check out...


First up...

TherExtras

A wealth of information for mommies & daddies hungry to learn how to proactively care for their children! Beware though...you may be lost for hours to the detriment of your home (my children's ability to trash the house behind me as case n' point) exploring the various links!

And on a personal note...Barbara...I'm not sure how or when you stumbled across my little piece of cyber space. But from the deepest part of my heart...I am so happy you did! So a big fat thank you! And if you're ever in coastal New England...I hear there's a cute little family that would love to give you a squeeze!


Next up...


EpliepsyMoms.com


How am I just today finding this site????


With the free registration comes the founder's down-loadable 6 Critical Facts Moms Need to Know When Dealing With a Child With Epilepsy...But Don't!


It's a really good read! I'm excited to explore more of the site. After I make my children run laps til' their little feet are numb!

At this point, I cannot retrace how I found anyone, but I do know I feel very attached to my blog-friends.

Blessings on you and your family. Barbara

I had checked out the epilepsymoms site before. I have some mixed emotions about some of it, though I wouldn't want to dis anything and instead will say thanks for the links...I always check out every one you post, one of my new 'General Rules' of the day. :)

Barbara...again...thanks!

Monica...you inspired me to spruce up Trevy's site! I *heart* cutest blog on the block!

Melanie...all signed up!

Ken...she is ULTRA pro-Keto. I am not. Of course...if we give it a go & Trevy's seizure free & graduatin' highschool...I might go Keto-crazy too?! I also disagree with the no-combos philosophy. Cause right about now...we'd do almost any dang thing for no seizures. Heck...for reduced seizures! And btw...your new "General Rules" made me lol! I hope you've heard from the team by now...I haven't had a chance to get the blog yet...

Anyway...

a different kind of muscle — guardianship process

  To all the parents who have walked through the guardianship process — my heart is with you. Our paperwork is prepped and ready to submit this week. He turns 18 on April 3rd. I've been thinking about this for a year now, but only just mustered the energy to move forward — the loom of his birthday my propellant. Overwhelm has paralyzing effect. I'm struggling to recall the last time I didn't feel overwhelmed. It struck me how all these years of walking through disability beside Trevor should have made me stronger and yet... I suppose it's a different kind of muscle being developed.

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

the great answer hunt in the land of Infantile Spasms

If I've said it once... I've thought it a million times more. How it's like the more I research...and discover...about IS. The more blurry everything becomes. For every answer found. A dozen questions are unearthed. Remember our whole ARX saga ? Yeah...that threw me for a loop. So much so...that I never went on to post the end of the story. Thus far... See...the unbelievable in the world of genes happened. Because this is IS-ville after all. After Dr. Genes sampled Trevy's ARX gene on a whim...a whim which revealed an unkown (meaning the first time this specific change was found) mild mutation...she proceeded to send Toby's blood off to mad scientist central. With assurances that this was totally unnecessary . She was convinced that Trevor's ARX mutation was the underlying cause of his Infantile Spasms. And that Typical Toby...would prove to be just that. Typical...at least in all areas mutate-able. And yet...Toby's ARX blood sample revealed THE SAME MIL...
