E79: Our Sad and Shocking News: Bryce is Having Seizures Again

Parenting Autism

This episode is a discussion about the results of of Bryce's recent EEG showing abnormal activity with seizures while sleeping in the right temporal lobe of his brain. This is a different area from his brain bleed and original seizures which was the area of our concern.
Our decision to get a current EEG and MRI with a new pediatrician turned out to be a very wise move. Although there were no particular signs of seizures concerning us, it was a gut feeling - A feeling that we should not forget to give attention to his history of seizures that has been overshadowed with his autism. In fact, his autism diagnosis makes Bryce a greater candidate for seizures as his brain continues to develop.
We will continue to share this new development in our journey with you and are requesting for your prayers. Specifically, we are seeking prayer for Bryce's protection from further damage to his brain, peace of mind and guidance for us as his parents/advocate, and wisdom for his doctors.
Bryce is a funny, mechanical, HAPPY little guy who was diagnosed with autism at age two and is now eight years old. His pure joy makes this world a much better place!
