And, Gretchen, maybe God will get tired of hearing your prayers and then ACT QUICKLY like He did for the widow dealing with the unjust judge!! (Luke 18:1-9)<BR/><BR/>Fawn--I left a message on your blog, but then I thought I should write here, too. We started weaning off of the keto diet in June because we thought the keto diet actually caused more seizures. It seemed to be in conflict with her Addison's medicine--the keto diet making her blood sugar low, the Addison's medicine keeping the blood sugar high, and the result was seizures. But--in June we also began giving her more water, and we adjusted her seizure medicine up. So maybe that helped too. Bottom line--God has used those different things to keep the seizures away, and we are thankful! I pray the same for little Jade.<BR/><BR/>JeanJean Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12237321202399962876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326012714687495701.post-41381269654385898342008-09-16T09:30:00.000-07:002008-09-16T09:30:00.000-07:00Hi Jean,I stumbled across your blog today as I've ...Hi Jean,<BR/><BR/>I stumbled across your blog today as I've been looking for stories of families who use the ketogenic diet to control seizures (trying to decide if it's something our family should do to treat my daughter's epilepsy). <BR/><BR/>I've never heard of anyone being weaned off the diet after just 3 months of seizure freedom, but I am excited for you! I'm sure it will be a huge relief to be able to stop all the calculating and weighing of foods. :)<BR/><BR/>I wish you and your family all the best, and continued healing for Annie.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/><BR/>Fawn<BR/><BR/>http://fawnahareo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-326012714687495701.post-66530095196435156522008-09-16T06:21:00.000-07:002008-09-16T06:21:00.000-07:00Okay...prayed my own prayer whilst reading your po...Okay...prayed my own prayer whilst reading your post.

You are so obviously working her little brain cells and connections every day and we THANK YOU!!!!! Thank You for her words, Thank You for no seizures, Thank You for the fact that she 'did well in school' yesterday. Thank You for everything! You are a great God and we are in awe to watch You work according to Your awesome power and perfect timing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
