Amazing how much life can change in a year. Last Thursday, the 25th, marked one year since Ashlyn had her first seizure. We went from terrified about what caused it, to hopeful it was a fluke, to realizing it wasn't and we needed to be super careful and then to wondering if we'd ever get it under control. Still hoping we do. So far this medicine she's on now seems ok, just hope it's working! Craziness.
In other news, today we are going to Brownwood again to watch Colten and his team in a playoff game. If they win today, they'll play 2 more games, if not, this will be the last one. Not sure which I'd rather happen lol.
John has been busy bulldozing and he's really been cleaning up all over the place, but his efforts have been hampered by cluster headaches almost everyday for the past 2 weeks. He's given up on getting 40 hours a week on the dozer for the month it's rented, what with the headaches and the kids activities and everything else he has to do. Oh well, he's close enough I think.

Dr. Visit
Ashlyn had a dr appt last week to see how she has been doing with her new medicine. So far they want to keep things as they are (only 1.5 pills every night) and see how it goes. They also wanted to schedule another EEG (only 24 hrs this time) to see if the medicine is working. So we now have that scheduled for Dec 26-27. It's not the best time, but it's while she's out of school and we've already met her deductible for the year, so BONUS. Hoping they see it's working so she has a chance to start driving again soon.
Other than that, Colten's football is moving right along. He's had 4 games (one was rained out) and they are currently 2-2. They have a game scheduled this weekend and we're hearing we'll make up the cancelled one and then after that is playoffs. He's still learning, but is having fun, so that's good. He also had a camp out with the boy scouts last weekend and he said it was fun even though he missed a lot of it due to his football game.
The kids are doing good in school so far this year, both had 1 B and the rest A's on the first report card so I was happy. Ashlyn is scheduled to take the SAT in Dec and ACT in Feb and is starting to study for those. Fun fun.
