Josie and Baby Carson






After school and Religious Ed class, we got to go spend time with Carson. Josie and I were so excited to finally get to hold the sweet, little guy. Josie is so incredible with the babies. She loves to hold them and talk to them. They seem to be so comfortable in her arms. Luke is so cute being a big brother. He looks so grown up.

I officially started Josie on her new seizure med. She is being put on Topomax. While I am adding the new med, she still has to take her old one, Carbitrol. It is a slow process to get her to the right saturation levels so we can remove the old one. She doesn't have the sleepiness side effect that this new drug is so famous for having. Yet, I am seeing a huge disconnect in certain areas of her learning. We definitely don't need any further disconnect in this area. She is also delayed in speech slightly where she is taking a lot longer to recall her words when speaking. I hope these side effects subside in the next 2 weeks before we get to Michigan.

Despite the med change, Josie is her happy, sweet self. We are grateful for that. Happy night, Jenny and Josie
