poor anthony...

anthony had to have an EEG last month because he been having seizures since he was 3 years old.  his seizures were always fever realated and so they diagonosed him to have febrile seizures. the problem is that he should have grown out of them by the time he was 5 years old...he just turned 7.

to get a great reading on the test we had to keep anthony up all night...without any caffiene! the idea is that if they stay up all night, by the time they have their test, they will fall alseep to sweet slumber. it was absolutely miserable for us and him. it started off fun because we played video games and ate junk like candy and ice cream, but soon got really aweful around 2am. at 6am anthony and i went to breakfast but we were too tired and slightly nausous to eat anything. it was all worth it because he fell fast asleep within seconds of getting all the gadgets attach to his head and the tests all came back totally normal and everything is really positive. they are not sure why he is still having seizures but for now he is a perfectly healthy 7 year old boy.

here are some pictures from my phone. just as a warning, he was really tired and a little scared...me too! the pictures are a lot more dramatic than it was in real life...poor guy.
