A Moment to be Seized


I've been wanting to tell y'all about this....

The seizure monster went away for Christmas!



Perhaps he went to the North Pole and froze to death?

One can wish, right?

And oh how I wish and pray that he is gone, really gone.


And yet, I am certain the monster lurks (as he always does) ready to pounce at the most unlikely of times.

Hissing with the threat of strangling my hope. My fragile hope....

yet I will NOT wait in fear.

I will not be in a prison of anxiety while the world around me bursts with joy

I will affirm that each seizure free second is a gift. A moment to be seized.

And I will give public thanks to God; for despite the fact that the seizure monster lurks, I serve One who is greater.

And even though it appears medical science and

my ceaseless efforts

can't kill this monster,

I'm going to keep fighting, because what else is a mother to do?


*** We didn't see any seizures from Christmas eve night until December 29th when they returned. It was a glorious break for those five days!

Incredible! You are right. All we are promised is THIS day. So glad you were thankful for those 5 days of seizure freedom.
