Abi Update

Just a quick update on Abi. She is doing FANTASTIC! We had a visit with her Neurologist last week & he couldn't stop telling us what an amazing little girl we have! She is doing incredibly well! She is vocalizing more. She says: "Dada" & "Hi", & also waves!!! She also is doing great developmentally. She regressed a little after I posted the videos of her saying Dada & rolling, but she is back to doing those things & also doing more. She is so vocal. She wakes us up very early in the morning by just jabbering away. I think she has found her voice!!! She also is scooting around on her back by pushing off with her feet. She went a whopping 5 days seizure FREE!!! But now is down to 1 every other day. Hopefully this last increase of her Vigabatrin will stop her seizures all together. She is doing well in her Physical Therapy & we couldn't thank the Up-To-3 Program enough. We also had a Swallow Study done to see if Abi is aspirating. The news: She's not!!!! Whew!!! She has a really bad case of acid reflux. But we're not out of the woods yet. We still need to watch her & if there are any suspicions of her aspirating, then to let them know. We go in for a follow up in 6 months.
We are so grateful for all the positive feedback we have received from the Doctors. I know that our prayers & your prayers have helped tremendously!!!
