Over the Hump?
It may be too early to celebrate, but this is the first year in long while that Caroline has gone through a fall and winter without a hospitalization! She is doing very well right now, and perhaps the XR version of the Seroquel is helping too. Meridell said that the children who leave their program and stay on the prescribed course of meds afterwards have a 90% chance of no hospitalizations needed in the next year. Well, we can attest hopefully to the veracity of that statement, but I am waiting until the end of February to start whooping. I am just so glad she went there! We would do it again in a heartbeat if necessary.
thats super! hooray for caroline!!
ReplyDeleteThat is fantastic news!
ReplyDeleteGreat! I hope everything keeps going well for Caroline and your family.
ReplyDeleteGreat news. You are giving me hope for my own daughter. The meds seem to be helping a bit, but its way too early to tell.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to hear it. Hope you have a really nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! Hopefully the hospital is a thing of the past.
ReplyDeleteI will keep my fingers crossed for you both!
