So we've had another hospital visit. He had to be intibated because he stopped breathing after his last seizure. they think he had pneumonia and parainfluenza....not so fun, but we did get to meet the friendly nurses on the PICU floor at childrens. we were very happy to leave after 3 days there though.....needless to say we are very patiently waiting the start of his special diet. (ketogenic diet)
Now that he's feeling better he's doing a little better. however he had another seizure today...poop. but it was a short one, so that's encouraging (his meds worked right away) and we are fiddling with his meds because of the diet so that may have started this one?
anywho, here are some cute pictures from easter and the park (finn and i had our first picnic together...it was sooo much fun) even though he looks drunk, it was just windy.

Another quick update
so this past week was one of our worst with an ambulance ride because of Finn having a two hour seizure, and having to stay for 2 days in the hospital...he's okay, but it was very, very scary!!! then he has a double ear infection with a sore throat and another 45 minute seizure 3 days later......it was pretty awful. i won't go into details because it's exhausting to think about. However, Finn is doing great, he's getting better from the congestion and all, and we're hoping for no more seizures for a bit.
Here are some pics over the past month to look at, to prove it's not all bad having such a great kid....Finn is such a trooper through everything we couldn't have asked for a better boy.
