Being happy doesnt mean that everything is perfect.

It means that you have decided to look beyond the imperfections...

On the mend again

Ellie has turned a corner, and is really starting to get back to her happy self, after her seizure and viral infection. Yesterday she laughed for the first time in 2 weeks, this really brought a smile to both our faces....  Its been really hard to see Ellie so 'flat' for the last 2 weeks.

Another huge thing, Ellie is finally getting her second tooth. I have been trying to get a photo of this to post, but trying to open Ellies mouth is not easy. Im convinced she thinks I am trying to get food into her, and as such clamps her mouth shut tight. 

This week is a busy week, as we are back to doing physio and occupational therapy, which I am excited about. We havent done any sort of exercises with Ellie over the last 2 weeks, and there is definately a noticeable decrease in her strength, so it will be good to get back to some sort of routine.

We also have a appointment with Ellies paediatrician on Tuesday, to review her after the seizure and to see how she is coping with the medication. So far there have been no huge issues with it, just that it makes her more sleepy, but hopefully her body will adjust to this.
