Weaning from the Ketogenic Diet
Well, it's time to start the weaning process from the ketogenic diet. It has not helped reduce the frequency with which Ben has seizures. In fact, he's now having anywhere from 4-6 seizures a week. Before we started the diet, he was consistenly having only 2 a week. Curiously, every Wednesday and Saturday, like clockwork. It has become much less predictable since starting the diet. We are disappointed that yet another intervention has not worked for Ben. But he continues to make progress developmentally, and that is really good news. As his Nana says, "Ben is just giving us more time to enjoy all the baby stages". Good ol' Nana!
