Detta är Dagen

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

back home

We're back from Delhi. I'll try to write more details soon, but essentially, we had lots of tests done on Will and the doctor said that he is having two kinds of seizures and suffering some side effects from the medicine that has been helping one kind of seizure - so, we're needing to change medication but we won't know for about 2 months if it is working or not since we have to ease him onto it. I found many things to Praise my God for during our trip, so I'll try to compile a list of those to share, and there were many frustrating and discouraging things as well, which I'll try to let go of (smile). We are thankful that Will had a very detailed MRI done which showed that EVERYTHING is normal in his brain - this is a huge blessing. We also had blood tests done and the results were fine, so he's not in any critical danger. We are simply trying to get the seizures under control without Will suffering any major side effects.
Then there is the painting project. Suffice it to say that this was only barely begun when we returned last night and it is well underway this morning- but we are only barely living in our house at this point... grrr. I'll be glad when it's all over with and there isn't old paint falling off the walls, or new paint to bump up against.
Well, that's it for now. Annie is asleep in her stroller since her crib won't fit easily out of her room where they're painting - oh what a mess!

So glad you are back. Thanks for this update. We praise God with you for all his Blessings. So sorry about the painting job. Shame. Well, hang in there. Love to you all, mamma and pappa/mormor and morfar

So good to hear from you. Give Will and Annie silly smooches for me, and take them to listen to you play cello for awhile. The house will be so nice when it is finished! (Danny didn't teach Will to draw on the walls, did he?) I love you much. Mom

Oh Praise the LORD for His goodness... I am so glad that you were able to have the mri/ testing done... and so grateful for the ultimately positive results! We will be praying as Will adjusts to the new meds and will pray for just the right combination...
Love, Deb
