Abigail’s EEG results came back perfectly normal.  When the doctor told me, I felt the weight of the world lift from shoulders and the vise grip that was on my heart release. 

She’s still twitching and shaking in her sleep and we still don’t have answers for that, but the doctor says unless she starts to exhibit signs of daytime sleepiness we’re going to let it go for now.  Of course I’m watching her like a hawk during the day and every time she yawns I wonder if she’s tired.  But, honestly, she’s as active as normal during the day…running, talking, playing.  Her teachers haven’t noticed any difference in her (and I think they would be the first to notice because she’s one of the most talkative in her class – surprise! – and if she started to quiet down, they would pick up on it quickly).  She’s playing soccer and enjoyed her birthday party last Saturday.  So, right now, the nighttime shakies just seem like some kind of anomaly.  And for that, I am thankful.  So very thankful.
