"She looks great"

Christina and I took Daisy to see a neurologist at UCSF yesterday.  The quote in the title of this post is his.  He did a full examination of Daisy and did not find any issues.  He did note that she is a little high strung but this is likely a result of coming off methadone and is one of the side effects of the Keppra seizure medication.  He believes that we can ween Daisy down to 50% of the original amount of seizure med over the next 7 weeks.  We will check in at that point and then look to ween her completely off the medication.  He does not believe in medicating for a condition that has not occurred.  Christina and I could not agree more.  We began the slow ween last night.  Christina and I could not be more happy with the neurologist we saw yesterday.  He is clearly at the top of the pediatric neurology world and we are very thankful to have Daisy in his care.  We are working to obtain the actual MRI imaging for him and look forward to his thoughts moving forward.  He also cleared us for the DTaP vaccination which we will be getting promptly next week.

It was a very long day yesterday with a trip to San Francisco and back.  The entire family was zonked out for an extended time last night... and we needed it.

Today Miss Daisy is taking a lazy Saturday.... and smiling in her sleep (I would smile to if I snoozed and ate all morning long).
