Had the app't with Brady's pediatrician. He's concerned about his seizures. Two points, one being he's had two seizures in less than 24 hours and that he's had a seizure without having a cold first. Said he now could have seizures past the age of 6. He also asked if I wanted him put on an epileptic drug, which after asking about the side affects, said uh nope. Why would I want to put my almost 3 year old on a mood alterning drug that causes motor delays? I'll take the seizures. The doc said he doesn't like recommending the drug but thought he should ask. He's recommending Brady to a pedi surgeon who'll put tubes in his ears. He said he won't get any more ear infections, which in turn will also prevent the seizures. Am very happy something is finally getting down. Because of all Brady's ear infections, his hearing isn't the greatest, which in turn, his speech is below average. He'll also be seeing a speech therapist. Though on a good note, the pediatrician says my son is above normal intellectually. Yep, pretty proud mama walked out of that doctor's office.
