The latest

Besides moving our blog (sorry everyone. We should have kept our home at SquareSpace in the first place. But we are now back), Cooper had a test.

We went back to the neurologist a few weeks ago. He suggest a 24 hour EEG instead of a 48 hour. He also suggested ABA therapy.

After to many people…professionals and friends…we decided not to go the ABA therapy route. We decided to keep his speech and OT. We also are waiting to hear back from the school district on services that he maybe getting in the coming school year. We also want to keep him at his preschool if possible.

we decided to do the EEG. We thought maybe it would give some insight to why he wakes up as much as he does at night. And maybe why he can’t sit still.

The EEG could have been a lot worse. In fact we thought he would be such a mess that it wouldn’t happen. He cried and fought the wires going on. I think because it looked so scary and because he thought it was going to make noise. He did really well until I had to continue to move a camera around with him. Luckily his big sister help make it fun and he was okay with it.

He fell asleep with the help of melatonin around 8:30 but was up at 2:30 to 5:30 and back up at 6:30. He couldn’t get comfortable with the backpack.

And he was such a happy dude for the lack of sleep.

We will be getting those results back in 30 days or so.
