It's hard for me to think about last month, June 2008, without a great deal of emotion. On June 5, our beautiful daughter, Addison, had 3 grand mal seizures. We spent the following 5 days in the hospital with her. She was diagnosed with epilepsy. This has been the most difficult thing that Chris & I have ever experienced...watching your child go through this and not being able to help or take it away. We are so grateful that we serve an all-knowing, all-powerful God who knows exactly what He has planned for Addie. It has been, and continues to be a tough realization, but we know that God is in control and He will protect her.
We were home for 2 weeks and then she experienced 3 more seizures. The doctors have adjusted her medications again, and we pray that Addie will quickly be on the correct dose of the right medication for her in order to stop the seizures.
We are so thankful for all of the prayers, encouragement and support that we have received from our family, friends, church family, etc. We are blessed to both be home all summer to attend to Addie at this time.
Holden has been quite a trooper as well! He has been somewhat "shuffled" between home and grandparents houses. He adjusts well, and actually seems to really like the attention!
