We will be praying for Luke and your family during this rough time.
You may want to consider homeschooling this month as a break for everyone. It may be possible to get a leave of absence from work with the Family Medical Leave Act. Also, there are all sorts of ways to detox medications quickly and safely from the body. Just some ideas! I know that you are exploring all options.
We wish you the best!
Take care,
Valerie Richey
Hey guys. Sorry I've checked out for a while. Luke had a med reaction
to Keppra and became very violent at school on Monday. They called
911 and we had to admitt him to the Psy unit for a med wash. While we
were there they went ahead and did the Telementry Video EEG, and the
MRI, however, they did not sedate him or use contrast like they were
supposed to. It was a mess. Luke won't be able to return to school for
a month,(that is how long Keppra takes to get out of system) so I am
meeting with the school today to discuss placement options. Please
continue to pray that the doctors get to the bottom of his recent
seizures, tics, cognitive slide downhill, aggression issues, weird
rash, excessive sleep, etc... It has been a very rough couple of
months, ... what am I saying, a very rough couple of years. Thanks,
and I will get working on uploading the files and updating the
calendar soon. Sincerely, Julia - Families with ASD
