Seizures: 12/24/5
From /dayblog.htm on Christmas Eve 2005 while doing the MME:
…did this seizure damage his brain (the jury is way out on that one when you ask MAINSTREAM DOCS but the Institute in Philadelphia thinks NO! & THEY SEE MORE BRAIN INJURED PEOPLE THAN ANYONE!)
Here are the Institutes articles on it:
The Nature of seizures & anti-convulsant considerations &
A BILL
OF PARTICULARS ON SEIZURES AND DISCONTINUING ANTICONVULSANTS

& Dr Steenblock thinks it initiates stem cell growth in the damaged area but that this can be outweighed by the Apoxia (lack of oxygen) if it is a grand mal seizure where they stop breathing & lips turn blue (like my son’s last night).
Bottom Line: I am going to stay with the three Depakote a day…hope that the seizure was a “healing crisis” that resulted in stimulation of stem cells that the MME will then grow! & that it acted like a guidepost for the stem cells we injected saying: “Hey we need the troops over here!!!” This isn’t just wishful thinking…this is hope based on my interviews with the docs that know the most about stem cells & seizures fertilized by my ever-optimistic brain that perhaps did some pruning of the potential down side!
Thought is power…words are powerful…intentions create reality & my son is healing with each passing moment & as time passes will shock almost everyone with his amazing transition to neurological health! I must not question his timeline, for like every child “blessed” with anything but perfect health, they are here to teach us something powerful! My son’s job, along with his journey, is simply more comprehensive than most! I envy no one’s success, but celebrate each child that shows improvement no matter how small…in fact…I was trying to explain to my husband what I am seeing in our son (I am sitting in the Calgary warehouse alone with my son on Christmas Day…waiting for the rest of my family who have agreed to come vs miss out on this opportunity for our son to heal more with more time spent under the MME…hearing his laughter come from under the MME. He has laughed before, but not often. He has felt good before, but not on a regular basis until we went to FuturesUnlimited & adopted an appreciation for the need to down regulate his neurological system.
Go forth & Heal! We are!
