Lauren has had a good week. Since the last post she has only had one drop seizure but has had 3 grandmal seizures all at 5 am while she was asleep. So overall she is doing so much better. Her doctors have redistributed more of her calories to the evening to see if that will help with her early morning seizures. The purpose of that is to see if her body is running out of fat throughout the night and causing her ketone level to drop. So giving her more calories of fat before bed may help her maintain higher ketosis throughout the night?
It has been nice to have the drop seizures go down. Those seizures really hurt her and have caused some big bruises and cuts.
Well overall the diet is getting easier to give and measure. Using the gram scale has become second nature. It is still hard for me to make sure she doesn't get other food in between her meals. It is amazing how much food there is everywhere. She has been so excepting of it. We just tell her its not good for her brain and she says okay. I have been amazed!
Thanks you for your continued prayers, they are so appreciated!
