Medications



I got so wrapped up in all the events of September I forgot to mention that we are starting to taper off some of Noah's medications. This is so exciting since he i
s on so many right now. Noah
has been on Keppra since April 2010. We are not concerned about his seizures appearing again since he has been on Keppra for so long and it hasn't been helping since last Christmas. The thought of eventually tapering off of his other non-convulsant scares me very much. Thankfully, we are doing one at a time.

Also, even though it has only been a few weeks and we have gone down very little, Noah seems to have extra energy in the afternoons. More than we have seen in a long time. Praise God for
his blessings!! He had a blast walking around camp yesterday trying to find the biggest puddle he could jump into.

Thanks again for all the prayers and encouragement!!

This is very encouraging news, the part about Noah having more energy, I hope things go well as you continue to taper the meds down. We will be praying for Noah, and for you guys in the midst of this trial and the anxiety it brings.
