Happy Easter



Hello to Everyone.... Now that Easter & Spring break is over I have some time to do an update on Makhi LOL......

Makhi is doing well right now the bu last 2 weeks for Makhi where no so well:(...
On April 4 Makhi came down with a terrible viral infection and became very sick quickly 20mins before he became sick he was playing and acting fine.. He started vomiting and having diarrhea an a very high fever.Also Makhi started having tremors in his hands and legs. Well needless to say I was so nervous and scared out of my mind I laid in bed with him all night praying to god to please don't let Makhi relapses .. Thankfully by Sunday morning the tremors had left and he was able to walk again and by Monday the fever was gone also..... God answer my prayers!!!!

For you that don't know a simply viral infection like Makhi had can cause a OMS child to have a relapses so as you can imagine it is quite terrifying when he becomes sick.. The good thing is the fever left within 24 hours but we are still dealing with the increase of irritability and bad behavior.. This is also something that is somewhat normal for children with OMS to have a increase in behavior problems after they have been sick. Makhi's OMS doctor said that the behavior problems should get better after about 2 weeks..Well at least return to his base line. We always have had behavior problems since the onset of OMS but they really increase after he has been sick.

Well off to the the good news !!!! Makhi is POTTY TRAINED!!! Yeah for Makhi... He is doing so well. His dad made his a Thomas the Train Potty chart. It has 8 stops on it and when Makhi goes the the bathroom 8 time then he gets a new train. It really seems to be working but I think Adrian and I will go broke soon from having to buy so many trains LOL ....


Also we have got Makhi weaned off Trazadone .This is a med that Makhi used for sleep. He is now able to go to sleep without any meds that help him. Now he does not sleep though the night without waking up anymore but he usual just ask for a drink and then he goes right back to sleep... I am so happy that we were able to get him off Trazadone.One drug down and many more to go LOL.....

School is going well for him!!! He was excited about going back to school today I think he really miss his teacher Mrs.Diana... He really is so bonded with her he talks about he all the time. When I ask him who his friends are at school he always tells me Mrs. Diana is his friend... He is so funny!!!LOL His speech is really coming along well.

Well that is all for now. Thank you for checking Makhi's update. Please keep praying for progress and no setbacks for Makhi.

There is a little boy name Braeden Burgess who is not doing well and he needs everyone prays right now.You can follow his story by clicking on the link below.
