And He said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
2 Corinthians 12:9

MAYO

Bring out the best.



This is what we are hoping for...

Yes, I have had to add a lot of mayo to my daily menu to keep up with the nutritional therapy they have placed me on for my seizures. However, we leave this weekend for the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota!! Praise the Lord!

They are ranked at the top as far as neurology goes and so we are praying that they are able to help us uncover more and actually get to the bottom of all of this. We are also seeing an autonomic specialist, for the POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) diagnosis. We saw a neurosurgeon a few weeks ago that said epilepsy can mimic POTS. So, we hope that they can put all of the pieces together. We are also trying to get in with an endocrinologist to see how my thyroid/auto-immune condition could play into everything.

We have a praise!! I went seven days last week without any seizures! That is the longest I've ever gone!!

However, in the last three days, I have had 25 seizures!!!!! We don't know what has changed. I basically have the same meals every single day, take the same meds, do the same things....so, we are hoping that they are able to help us uncover more...

We'll try to get better about updates while we are there...

We covet your prayers!!!!
