Lois has had a good couple of days. She is now totally off the Dilanton and is feeling a little bit better each day. The new drug, Keppra, makes her a little tired but nothing compared to the Dilanton. Lois is feeling so much better that she has been thinking about going to her house to pick out a few things for herself. Until now she has tried to explain to me what she wants and I try to find it—sort of like a scavenger hunt I guess. She has been thinking about getting rid of some of the clothes that she will not be needing. I just think that it is great that she is making these kind of plans. For the last few weeks she has done nothing but sleep. Lois’ accountant, Ray, visited this week. He had Lois’ taxes done and wanted to visit her. He called me saying he had witness a miracle as he has not seen Lois in several months. She has made great progress in that time. Lois’ personal trainer, Dave, continues to visit Lois up to four times a week. He puts her through a series of exercises and helps her practice sitting on the side of the bed and standing.
