We dropped 1 more pill 1 week ago!

Wow! I can't believe I haven't posted since December 3rd!

I took a gamble and dropped 1 pill on December 14th - hoping we wouldn't have school all week! My gamble paid off and school was called off every single day due to bad weather. Luck us! Chase was SO happy he gets another week off for winter break.

The wean has gone pretty well - although this last drop was by half and there were more seizures this time. The improvement we saw the drop of pill #2 was an interest in improving his reading skills. This last pill (#3) has seen him getting himself fed in the morning and taking his meds on his own. Plus - drum roll please - he's starting to learn how to do his laundry! Wowser! He did most of his own laundry this weekend - from loading the machines to hanging up & putting away his clothes. Also - last night he started cleaning up his room without being asked.

What did we do with no school this week? Mostly watch TV - Chase browsed Flair on Facebook, and played World of Warcraft - I renewed his subscription and he's paying for it with his allowance.

Oh - he also shoveled the snow - the front sidewalk & part of the driveway. He says he wants that to be his new chore.

I'm posting pictures of the snow shoveling & the snow we got - just since Thursday we've gotten about 18".
