he is the one who i wrote about here a few days back and he's the one with the seizures. he graduated from primary school today with honors. i felt so proud and tearful at the same time coz i remembered what we've all been thru this past week. it's never easy to be a parent. sigh!

Wow, how wonderful for you all! At last a little silver lining to your cloud, I'm so pleased for you. How is he getting on other than that, have you had any results, etc yet? Please let me know!

thanks for your concern, rainbow. i'm truly touched. we've had an EEG where it was determined that he did have a seizure and a CTscan where nothing out of the ordinary was found, thank God. he's on medication for the next 6 months then another EEG is scheduled. he's not to be left alone when swimming or on a bike and he's not to overexert and overexcite himself. a tall order, if you ask me, coz he's very active and is on the move always. otherwise, he's fine and has had no seizures since. but we're not letting our guard down, though!

at least you sort of know were you stand, 6 months is a long time, fingers crossed he will have learned some boundaries by then nad hopefully get an all clear too!! Good luck and I wish you all the best at finding a balance between the things he loves and this awful problem. If you need to talk about it you know where I am! Bigh hugs to you all.
