update on Poutchino

Poutchino had a seizure tonight and thanks be to God i was so calm and proactive...did everything i was suppose to and he is doing fine sleeping with lots of Valium in his little system.

pray for him as we don't go back to see the doctor for 3 weeks and he is starting to have fevers again. it looks like we might need to take him to see a neurologist, but its so hard to ever actually get one here. I don't know if it can wait until Dorothy gets home or if its something i will have to figure out.

however despite all that, his spirit is well. he is so much more full of life as the days go by. he is getting stronger. in fact with in the last few weeks he has started standing on his own, granted only for a few seconds or more, but that is an answered prayer. yesterday i was shouting praises to the roof tops because he took two steps without help. he is ridiculously wobbly, and i have to be right there to catch him when he goes down, but hes getting so much confident. he is gaining more weight from the extra snack i have been giving him in the afternoons. it is helping him tack on more calories. he is even being more aware of his surroundings, lately he wants to touch the dogs, before he never even paid any attention to their presence.

all in all, he has had so much improvement and i cannot thank you enough for the prayers send up to our Lord on his behalf. keep perservering in that as we long to get him healed from all these fevers and pneumonia.

thanks again.
LOVE
