Hello all,
Tahlia continues to amaze us as we enjoy this little bundle that we get to enjoy.
Today Tahlia saw her neurologist, Dr. Taft. The appointment began in a very unpleasant way. When Tahlia was weighed and measured, she began screaming her head off. She finally calmed down after about five minutes. Dr. Taft asked us a series of questions and then told us that he wants to take Tahlia, in the middle of May, off of phenobarbital completely. As you can probably guess, we were/are really excited about this. In addition, he stated that he believes there are no seizures coming from the affected area and that she is (and I knock on wood as I write this) is seizure free (you knock on wood too). Daddy stated that he didn't understand what Dr. Taft stated, and Dr. Taft said the same thing again. The doctor also told us that Tahlia has a heightened chance of having epilepsy in the future, but there is nothing that shows she will. We're pretty excited.
Tahlia is doing lots of new things, but we'll let you digest this information for now.
Thank you for all your prayers -- we know they are why she is doing so well. Keep her in your thoughts.
Love
Muggsie, Lauren & Tahlia

Wow. That is incredible. Truly great news to receive today!
We think about you all the time and in fact have been wondering about coming to visit this summer. But I'll email about that!
Lots of love from Jesse and Desmond and me!
