Update

Hello,

Just a quick update about Cutter. He is still having some breakthrough seizures, though they are still mild and infrequent. He had one on January 10th and on January 17th. They still seem to be triggered by lack of sleep. (He still rarely sleeps all night long without waking up!) However, even though he is still having seizures, he is moving right along! He is taking more and more steps on his own and standing by himself. His physical therapist said she thought he might be walking on his own by 14months. He turns 14 months on Tuesday, so we will see!

Please continue to pray for us. We know that is by God's grace and the prayers of our family and friends that we are able to deal with this situation! We love you all!

Happy New Year!

Hello Friends,

Well 2010 has ended and what a year it was! We had many highs and many lows. Lots of laughs and lots of tears. Most importantly, there were a lot of prayers. Cutter is doing good and has made so much progress this year. From where we started January 22, 2010 to where we are now we are so very grateful. God has been wonderful to us and to little Cutter.

Until yesterday Cutter's last known "official" seizure was August 29th. (It is quite possible that he had a small seizure on November 1.) Yesterday, he had an episode that we are fairly certain was another seizure. The way he has them now makes it difficult to say whether or not it was a true seizure. He was drooling, staring and acting disoriented, all of his normal seizure activity signs. However, he did not fall asleep afterward and, in the past, this is something that always followed a seizure. Hopefully, it was a one time incident and he will not continue to have any more breakthrough seizures.

Thank you for your continued support and prayers. Please continue to pray for our little angel. God has been great, and we are fully trusting in Him. We are still hoping that through Cutter and his disorder someone will see the miracles of God and come to know Him and trust in His ways.

Best Wishes for the New Year!
