Being happy doesnt mean that everything is perfect.

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

Still not 100%

Ellie still isn't 100% since her seizures on Saturday and Sunday. Today she had about 1 hour where she kept having absent episodes, and she isnt really eating, she just isnt interested in food and taking alot less milk. Need to keep an eye on this as she cannot afford to eat less for too long.

However I have found one thing that helps, even though I find it quite disgusting. Ellie LOVES custard, no matter what flavour, so tonight when she wouldnt eat dinner.... I added custard to it. So for dinner Ellie had bolognese, with pumkin, and custard... all this was mashed together in one bowl. It would revolt anyone, BUT.... She seemed to like it.

Today we also tried side sitting again with the bumbo cushion, and if you have a look at the photos below you can see that I am not behind her in the photos.... thats right I had enough time to get from behind her to the front to take the photo. Ellie sat in side sitting without me holding her for about 4 seconds. WOO HOO!!!!
