Finally an update!

What a year. Now that I've figured out a way to blog from my iPad (and iPhone!) I intend to shoot for at least a weekly blog post so everyone can see what my amazing Brie is up to!
We have been so blessed. Brianna has come so far in the last year. This time last year she had totally regressed from the world. She would curl up and scream anytime someone not in her immediate family spoke to her. Random sounds would send her into a fit. It seemed like the only thing that made her happy was watching Mickey Mouse. She was having daily seizures and it felt like we had lost a part of her.
Now, she has blossomed. She is a chatterbox, talking away in her own language. Interacting with people, even strangers. She's crawling around, and trying to walk as much as possible holding on to whatever she can. It has probably been 8 months since she had a seizure. We are truly and deeply blessed. Between the ketogenic diet, all the work school has done with her, and the therapists at Kapiolani Medical Center, she has come such a long way. She is truly a little miracle.
