So...it's been awhile and a lot has been happening ... in Wisconsin and with Gio's diet. I'll stick with Gio's diet on these pages.
Gio got pneumonia in February and it was horrible. No other words can describe it. Before Gio's adenoid surgery in September, he used to spend most of winter sick. This was the first one this winter which was great.
But, pneumonia is just plain horrible...especially when it's a kid who cannot tell you he is sick, has no idea what is going on and is having seizures while sick.
He was put on medicines and that really messed things up with the seizures...there was one night he had about 9 really big seizures...one every hour or so. They lasted a long time and looked like he was dying. Once the medicines got through his system...that took about 14 days, he returned to somewhat normal - 3 seizures a day.
We've also changed his medicines an I'm not quite sold. I don't think it's working at all.
And, as for his language...it has stalled again. He wants to talk, but cannot and he keeps wanting to lick everything...I mean EVERYTHING! That sucks when you go to the Children's Museum...trust me.
As for the foods...he's doing well but I think is getting sick of hot dogs. That's kinda sad for a kid.
Good things: He's doing well at school! And, the other day he and Benicio were upstairs watching Yo Gabba Gabba and they were both quiet. I went upstairs and found both standing in front of the TV just watching quietly. Gio stood there for 5 minutes mot moving. That's a HUGE thing!
