Result of the Angio

So the angio came back as normal. What??? Now what. On a positive note that is good because it hopefully means he doesn't have vasculitis(inflammation of the vessels). It is really hard to treat and really hard to diagnos. We went to Dr. C here in IF after and he still wants us to forward with weaning him off some of his medications and started him on some steroids. The first few days were really crazy he was so hyper and was bouncing off the walls and furniture literally, plus he had six seizures in one day. They didn't last long so that is good. We did discuss a special diet with the Dr. for Bren to try and see if it helps. He was a little hesitant because of all the medication he is on and there isn't a dietician here in town to follow him. Sometimes it is so hard to go from test to test without getting any closer to finding answers. Bren is such an amazing kid, he is so strong mentally and physically. He has gone through so many tests and has been so patient for the most part. He loves going to his therapies but does get really tired and frustrated sometimes.
As for the other kiddos they are hangin in there. I think they are getting jealous at times that Bren gets a lot of attention and gets to go everywhere with mom or dad. I wish there were 2 of me at times so I could be with him and also with the others. Jordan just turned 10 crazy I have a 10 year old where does the time go.
I am so thankful for friends and family. I know I would not be able to handle the trials that are given to me. One of my dearest friends has endured trial after trial and still has a smile on her face and has the patience and faithfulness to keep it all together and be so strong and close to her Father in Heaven. I wish that I had as much faith as she does. I am truly grateful for her and the example that she sets for me. Being busy with our families we don't see each other very often. I am so thankful to have her in my life she has dropped everything to come and sit with me when I am having a hard time. I know that I have such wonderful friends and family in my life that will and have done that for me. I hope someday I will be able to return the favor and show how much I appreciate each and everyone of you. God bless you and I hope you all have a very wonderful Thanksgiving.
