Yet another...

Well #2 has come and gone. (that we know of) A seizure that is. After putting him down for naps, I laid him on the couch and went to finish my cookies I was making. I look over and see his leg shaking, so I go over there and he is having convulsions with his eyes open, looking to the left side. He was quivering and breathing hard. with lots of slobber coming out of his mouth. It just kills me to not be able to help him in any way possible, just sit there by his side and make sure it doesn't happen for longer then 5 minutes. If it does happen longer then 5 minutes, then we are to insert a med rectally and that, I cannot do to him! This lasted about a minute, but feels like forever! You never know when its going to end, what you will have to do next. After it was over, he was so lethargic again, and got pale. I don't know why he got pale, but he was ready for a nap after. So he is out of it at the moment, sleeping, resting from this tremendous thing that happens to his body. I hate it when this happens, and I hate not being able to do anything! I know with out a shadow of a doubt, Damon was sent here us for a reason. I will stay strong for him, and help him however way possible. We don't know how long we have with him, may to short, may be long, but I do know that he will be made perfect one day and that day I cannot wait for! I can't wait to be able to see him run and walk and do things boys should do! Kicking a ball, playing with cars, wrestling with his brother. Until that day.... I love you Damon!

My oldest sister had seizures when she was little and to hear my mom talk about that breaks my heart. I have a soft spot for your family, you are an amazing person. Damon is very lucky to have you for a mother.

You and Damon both need a "Grandma/Grandpa hug." :) That was a very emotional experience. You captured so well your feelings and spiritual insight. We love your family. We miss you. Damon is in good hands. :)

Love,
Mom & Dad

Poor little Daman. It broke my heart to read that because I can't imagine all the thoughts/feelings going on in your family. You are amazing and I often marvel and how graceful you handle this whole situation. I truly believe that these special chilren are sent here to teach all of us a lesson. It will be amazing to see Damon perfect one day. You have such a sweet insight to it all. You're an amazing mother & girl all around. I love to see all the many things you are up to and be envious of all your crafts. HOpe everything is going better. Thanks for your example!
