Summer in Cincinnati has been beautiful. Actually, it has been a pretty cool July, which I (being from Minnesota) have taken as a huge blessing. Today we spent the morning at the water and the evening watching Richard play softball. I must brag, he is pitching now, and I think he does alright...
It has been a busy July, since all of my guys birthdays fall in that month (or thereabouts). Josiah turned 3 June 30th, Levi turned 2 on July 16th, and Richard turned 29 on July 24th. Happy birthday to all of them!! The boys enjoyed our family tradition of homemade cake for breakfast on your birthday (or in Richard's case, Cherry Cream Cheese Pie).
The process for Abigail's schooling though the district is also well underway, and we will be meeting with the school district in August to begin the process of getting her Individualized Education Plan (IEP) in place. I am hoping to be able to make an educated decision regarding which program is best for Abby for the upcoming year; the school district or the conductive learning center. We may decide to use both at the same time.
Abigail is nearly weaned off of the Labetalol, we drop our final dose hopefully in the next week or so. We are going to talk to her doctor about beginning to wean the Valium tomorrow. Her seizures are again improving. She has returned to 0 to 2 full body seizures a day. We will have to wean the Valium cautiously, so that she does not again begin to seize more frequently. We have scheduled the sleep study for July 24th to determine if we can indeed eliminate the Bi-Pap machine.
At her last round of appointments, the doctors agreed that Abigail is tracking items visually. She has been doing alot more blinking in response to questions. When Tim and Melissa visited last weekend, Tim noted that she was really a lot more alert than the last time he saw her several months ago.
We are getting very excited about our trip to Disney September 7th. I hear that Make a Wish really spoils the kiddos. It should be a lot of fun! To see a bit of the adventure that awaits us, visit www.gktw.org.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JOSIAH, LEVI AND RICHARD!!!
Praise God for wisdom, knowledge and understanding for Angie as she makes decisions regarding Abigail's schooling. I ask that the Holy Spirit will show her what is available and what is best for Abigail as she recovers completely.
Praise God that He is weaning Abigail off Latetalol and Valium.
I command the seizures to stop completely in Jesus' Name. We can speak to the mountains (seizures) and command them to be removed in Jesus' Name.
