Any way - thanks so much girl. Murphy is doing pretty well. He has now been on the Phenobarbital for about a month now and no seizures. PRAISE GOD!! I think the meds are pretty good for him, I have noticed a lot of his expressions have come back and even his attention span has gotten better. It is almost like my old Murphy is back. Sometimes he acts a little funny when he walks....almost like his legs don't want to go but I can not figure out if that is maybe a seizure coming on and not happening yet or what. I think it may be too soon to tell but so far I am really pleased. Thank you so much for thinking of us - you are so sweet.
Also I have started home cooking for them both and adding vitamins and flax seed oil to their diet. I am hoping this new organic and whole foods diet will help him as well.
How is your baby Winston doing? |
Sounds like good news for Murphy, so happy to hear he's acting more like himself...he has to be happier too. At the very least with the home cooking you'll know exactly what they're eating, keep up the good work. You are so caring, and it shows in your love for your babies.
Winston is doing well, he's had 2 "episodes" since starting him on more frequent feedings. Both times I was home alone with him...so I wasn't able to get his blood sugar levels...but I'm certain that is what's going on. A little bit of Nutrical brings him out of it...otherwise he is totally normal, running around crazy and all. I'm trying very hard to watch his weight though, he's still hanging in there at about 8 pounds...wish it were 7 pounds but he has to eat so much, so often...it's been hard. Overall he's doing well and that's the most important thing. Hugs to you and yours...
