Have I even mentioned my husband? Well, he is amazing. Not only did he sign up for marrying me with the full knowledge of my depression, anxiety, social awkwardness, and eating issues but he has now saved my life and is being an incredibly strong, supportive, and loving husband whom I probably scared to death when he discovered me seizing in the bathroom, banging my head on the wall. He and my parents (and my in laws who almost left the airport on their way to Florida) are now driving me around like a child to various doctors appointments and procedures and then my daughter around to her dance classes, daycare, and tumbling.I just could not be more blessed, especially considering my beautiful angel girl who has been singing the cutest little song "I love you forever" and giving lots of hugs. I am amazed at how well she is coping and hope that we can keep her life as normal as possible no matter what happens.
In terms of the epidermoid tumor I did get some fun pictures from my MRI:
...it looks like i have a lime in my right temporal lobe...could that have anything to do with my anxiety, poor executive functioning skills, etc?
Now some positives:
My doctor also responded to my concerns about the anti-seizure medication and said that if my EEG results from today come back fine then I can stop the keppra.
Alycia Halladay from the Autism Science Foundation is amazing and so responsive! I plan to finish up writing my podcast about the differences between modern day ABA and DTT tomorrow and am really hoping she has some work to keep me busy during this uncertain time.
