All About Damon!

So Damon has decided these past few days that he wants to be big! Not that he isn't already big, but he's made some GREAT progress! Im so proud of him! Well we had his EEG report this morning. He does have some abnormal things happening when he's sleeping on the left side of the brain, in the front center area. Which explains why his left side works so much better. The right side of the brain works the left side. So that was new, but I knew that he would have abnormal findings, so not much news to me. The doctor explained them as "sparks" going on. He's got his own fireworks show going on for him. Ok not like. So all in all, he is at a potential to have seizures if not already having them. Seizures are so different in so many ways, so whether to tell or not, who knows. We'll go in and have a checkup when we get back from Washington. So while we were waiting in the waiting room at the Dr.'s I was clapping with Keenan and Damon was in the chair across from us. He then starts to clap with us. Not a hand to hand clap, but a fist to fist. He knew what he was doing, cause he was excited he was doing it. And he did it again in the car ride home when I asked him to clap! He's also decided that he likes food again. He wierd. He will go in spurts but it has been like 7-8 months since he's wanted to eat "real" food. He would put it in his mouth and just leave it there but he's actaully swallowing and somewhat putting his lip down to close on the spoon. For those that know Damon, this is a great accomplishment on its own. He loves to "crunch" as we tell him. "Damon want to crunch?" He opens his mouth so you can put something in there for him to "crunch" on such as the little puffs. Well just had to brag how he's doing. Take care everyone! Count your blessings! All of them.
