No Week. No Thing #. Just some Final Thoughts

As I suspected, the blog was generally amusing when I had nothing else to do. However most of the time I have enough on my plate without feeling a need to publicly post on a regular basis. I feel that if I actually created a library blog for my school's library, it would languish for long periods of time with no updates. So I don't see myself starting a liblog anytime soon.

More importantly, since some folks have asked, my little guy is doing great. He has not had any seizures since the first two. The neurologist says not to worry since he is fine developmentally. Sure, his brain is physically abnormal, but it functions just fine which is the important part. As far as why there are physical abnormalities in his brain, my doctor surmises they developed in utero. This means that things won't get any worse. We are not looking at anything degenerative. And though his lobes are not balanced, he is missing large bits of white matter, and bundles of neurons appear where they don't normally, his functioning pathways are all working quite well. Apparently he has rewired himself to compensate for the structural glitches. The seizures themselves may have absolutely nothing to do with his brain structure anomalies. So, we are not medicating. The only difference in our lives is that one of his parents always sleeps with him. If he goes a year without seizures, we will stop monitoring so closely. For now, his attention is on kindergarten and playing soccer.

And my older son is doing quite well, too. He just finished HP7. He is 7.
