19 Days of no seizures, and then it happens!!!!

Aurora had 19 GREAT days of no seizures! However for the past 5 days she has been saying she is going to have a seizure... and then gets the look and nothing happens. This is her pattern... a couple days of saying she is going to have a seizure, and then by the 3-4th day she finally has one!
It sucks... 19 days is great! This is why when people say to me "WOW, 19 days!!! That is great!" I dont get excited. I have seen her go 30 days and then weeks of seizures! I hate to be NOT optimistic... but with Epilepsy you cant be. Its so uncertain! I hate it....
Anyways. I am waiting as I write this to speak with her Neurologist, to find out the next plan for her meds. I am sure they will increase her Depakote.
For now... we wait.
My poor girl. I wish for anything for this to all go away! I keep telling myself it could be SO MUCH worse, she could have Lukeima, or a child cancer!
