unimpressive

I've been waiting...somewhat patiently...for Trevy's Dr. Neuro. The same Dr. Neuro that we're over the moon for. To send Trevor's PET scan results to Dr. RockStar. In Detroit.



I've been emailed that it will happen.



We spoke face to face. And was told it was happening.


Went home from the hosptial. A bit destroyed by the EEG news. It's a mess. But optimistic for Dr. RockStar's eyes to check out the scan.


It's been a looooong day. Dentist in the am. Easter Bunny (what was I thinking) in the afternoon-m. And 2 hours of baseball practice in the pm. Lookin' forward to freezing my bloomin' tushie off! Makes me feel SO Americana...


Somewhere in between the Dentist & the Easter Bunny...Dr. Neuro left a message. Which basically informed me that she was working on sending a package to Dr. RockStar. Soon! But after reviewing the PET again...the left sided abnormalities were unimpressive.



Which I'm fine with. Honest.


Just send the bloody scan to Detroit already. Cause I'm really more interested in what Dr. RockStar thinks.


But I still love ya'!

I like your nickname for him. That's cool.

The waiting is torture, they need to get off their butts and mail the stuff to him for review already.

Man, man...waiting is killer! I can't even imagine the anticipation! I'M anxious waiting to hear what he has to say...you must be on pins and needles! I'll bet one thing though...HE will not make you wait once he gets it. He's soooo quick! The whole clinic is super efficient..

Thanks guys...

Still no word. I'd just mail him a cd scan...except he specifically requested an email. And since he's already donating his time for us...I feel strongly that it needs to be in the format he requested.

If it's not done soon though...I may be making a trip in person to see what the hold up is...

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...
