That's right, we're moving home back home. The head pediatrician on the floor came by today and admitted that after watching Mark for a week they really have no answers. They introduced an acid blocking drug to help reduce the acidity in his stomach. This will help if he has reflux, but they can't be sure if he does or not. All through Marks life he has stumped the experts. Clearly there is something wrong, but nobody can say what.
Strangely, while all the attention was on fixing his tummy, his seizures stopped. For the entire week that he has been at Sick Kids he has not had a single seizure of any kind. I think this is big news, but the doctors can't figure that out either. Prior to this week he was having 4 to 6 seizures a day. These were full blown seizures complete with clenched fists, eyes rolling back and grimaced face, but lately we haven't seen even a sign of seizure activity. Hmmmm!
We're not really sure what to think anymore, but we're sure glad to be heading home.

Yeah, hallelujah, glad your home is back in that museum with the fridge and the junk mail.
Glad there's been fewer seizrues to suffer through with Marky. i hate watching people go thru seizures - knowing that a piece of them is being stolen away.
Thanks for sharing your owees and your humanity with us.
