Happy Birthday Carly!

It is hard to believe that our little girl is three years old today. She is getting bigger each day and her cute little curls continue to grow. (And as you can see, she got some new boots for her birthday.) She has been doing pretty well recently, continuing to eat well and drink from a bottle like an old pro. Her seizures were not changing with her last medication so we started another late last week. So far it seems to be helping as she had her first seizure free day since September over the weekend. Although she has had a few since then, they have been shorter and less intense. Carly has been really tired this week, sleeping for the majority of the day and having some trouble staying awake to eat. This could be adjusting to the new medications and she is also fighting off a cold, so we will be keeping an eye on that and hoping that she starts to feel more energetic in the coming days. I am thankful everyday for the medical team and the support from Team Carly that has helped her to get to where she is, and will continue to help lift her up on her road to recovery.

Love, Brad
