Visit to the Neurologist

Yesterday, Amy had a visit with her neurologist.  You're probably asking, "Why are there so many doctors?  How many more do you have to see?" Well, this is the last one.  His job is to manage Amy's seizures, which thankfully, she hasn't had any more of since the surgery.  We were happy that he suggested that after we get back to Peru and settled that Amy could try weaning off of Keppra, since the part of the brain that was causing the seizures was removed in her last surgery.  So, that is a very positive thing.  Amy's headaches have recently taken a turn for the better, though she still has yet to go a day without taking some tylenol, but yesterday was close!  Thanks for praying.

At the moment we are busy getting all of our ducks in a row before returning to Peru:  Transcripts for school, fees for Interpol, changing addresses with banks, background checks (every 3 years) for SIM, etc.  It will be a busy 2 weeks, but we like to be busy!
