sick sense-a

So theres this Dr. Nobody Knows Who He IS with the neuro-surge team.



(insider tip: all the cool seizure parents use the slang term neuro-suuurge)



Anyway...we've seen him a couple times. After each visit the nurses are all like...



Who was that?



We're all non-chalant cool like...



Who him? Oh he's just with neuro-suuuurge.



Anyway...that has nothing to do with this. Except that to emphasize we're cool like that. And the fact that he just checked on Trevy.



When he walked in his neuro-suuuurge ears were assaulted by various musical toys all chiming various musical tunes at once.



Wow...competeing music in here huh?



Says he.



When I do the cool-mom shrug and nod he adds...



I think I'm gonna have a seizure in this room!

When we were in the PICU there was some resident who was uber-hot and all the ladies tried to be sure they were in the room when he was around.

Never knew his name, just called him Dr. Hottie.

LOL, gotta love seizure humor, huh?

So did they end up doing a CAT scan?

They didn't. I actually called Chugani at home yesterday...cause I was starting to freak out mildly. Chugani said it was most likely related to the major sedation and fluid intake he had. He told me not to worry. lol

We were actually moved upstairs to a regular room. We've now either stayed in or had procedures done on every single floor in this place!

Trevy is SO lethargic...

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...
