About a month ago, Lydia went in for her first EEG. The results showed that it was abnormal. Lydia didn’t show a seizure but it showed a “seizure tendency”. We were given a couple options and decided that we wanted to do further testing to see if we could figure out IF there was a …
Our 10th Anniversary
When Plans Change Last week, Mark and I were able to celebrate our ten year anniversary. Can you believe it?! TEN YEARS! Sad story. When Mark and I were still in our very first year of marriage, we decided that for our ten year anniversary we would go on a special trip. And we’ve been …
