I've been away for a few days for work, unfortunately. This is a picture Charlotte sent me this morning of what Gio looked like when he woke up. He has had a bad week of seizures and fell yesterday into a subwoofer in our basement and smashed his lip...woke up looking huge!
Gio has taken a beaten in his short life. If you look inside his mouth at his lower lip you will see a really bad stitching of a massive cut - he fell several years ago, but nearly through his lip. His chin has great scar from 5 drop seizures that cut his chin open each time and it took that many times until doctors would stitch it.
Do you know that I have to carry a note in my wallet from his neurologist that says Gio has really bad seizures that cause him to fall and become injured so that when I bring him to the hospital I am not accused of child abuse?
I just wonder how much his little body can take...from the seizures that cause him to stop breathing and make his heart pound to the falls and bruises.
Really...this isn't fair for any child.
