Update...







It's been awhile since I have updated the current situation. Things have been busy out here in Phoenix. Chris remains in Pensacola while Matthew and I stay in Phoenix. My grandpa recently passed away and a month later my aunt passed suddenly from a stroke. I do not have my lap top and Matthew does not nap like he used to, so to get online for more than a few minutes can be challenging.






The reason why Chris is still in Pensacola is because we had an adoption pending with a child in the foster care system. Unfortunately, that is currently falling though. The silver lining to that is, Chris and I can soon be living together again. There is a program in the military that basically states we cannot be stationed where Matthew's needs cannot be met. We are able to start to look into this and hopefully in a month or so we will be stationed together.






Matthew is getting excellent care in Phoenix. We have a good doctor, great therapist and great case managers. His PT said he continues to improve and do better each week. We are still very behind, but we are still improving.






Matthew's seizures continue on a daily basis. Some days we have a few, but most days I see them every time he wakes up. This could be a 10 minute cat nap or middle of the night. We have been trying new medications, which help, but we cannot seem to get rid of them.




Our next appointment with the neuro is Oct 8th.
