This is a huge step for your Austin.<br /><br />For my Austin, hypps being gone was step one. Steps 2-10,000 have been therapy, therapy and more therapy. I know, I know, Austin is already doing that, but now that the hypps is gone, the therapists should be able to get through to him better. Seeing all these new signs from him should be very encouraging. It reminds you that he's been there all along, just waiting for the seizures and hypps to give him a break. I truly hope he amazes you ad my Austin has amazed me over the years.<br /><br />Remember though, it's still a long road. We got my Austin's hypps stopped (for him spasms stopped before hypps) when he was just over 2. He's going to be 7 soon. We are still doing therapy. This isn't to discourage you, but to remind you slow and steady wins the race.<br /><br />Keep us posted and congrats again!JSmith5780https://www.blogger.com/profile/16954759123115546248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2584570468185542765.post-66029784404071577122009-07-27T17:45:39.360-05:002009-07-27T17:45:39.360-05:00I think your gut reaction is a solid one. Having t...I think your gut reaction is a solid one. Having that one thing gone, which is a big thing I grant you, is a big deal, but it isn't the only deal and you know that. Hyps might be gone, but other things are there, and even non-specific to EEG, MRI, PET and everything else. You just know by the day to day interaction.<br /><br />So yeah, having them gone is good, but recognizing that your road still has some hills to climb is good too, mentally keep you ready.blogzillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08268388544631653375noreply@blogger.com
