  • Just a quick update since we last filmed: We were able to talk to another pediatric neurologist in the area from a smaller clinic and get more hands-on help. Currently Fletcher's seizures are down to almost zero (as of the past 4 days.) Keep praying as test results roll in over the next couple of weeks, that we could find a treatment plan for him that would be successful. Every day feels like a roller coaster, but with God we are learning to navigate this new normal. We are so appreciative of you all! Thanks for being here.❤
  • “There’s a path forward and there’s a path through it. We just need to find that path.” -Josh 😭❤️ such great perspective!
  • Have him tested for tick born illness. Seizures are a common symptom in children. This is suspect as it started right after camping. He will be alright. Have faith. Prayers for healing and comfort for all.

    Epilepsy isn't a death sentence. I am 41, I am able to drive, I have lived on my own since I graduated college. The only thing I don't do is haunted houses and I'm careful around flashing lights and fireworks. My life is normal... I just happen to take meds.
  • A few thoughts after watching this: 1. Yes praying for your family 2. You married well. Josh gives a great example of a person not leaning to their own understanding. He leans into his faith and encourages himself in the Lord like David. It doesn’t mean he isn’t scared but he clearly knows where his help comes from in his heart. That’s a blessing to have. 3. If Jeremiah 29:11 is the word God gave you for this time, remember the promise God made to his people in that verse would only come AFTER their time in Babylon. Babylon is rough but a promise from God is a promise that will be kept. 4. I pray for the health of your son, the peace in your mind and soul and the building of your faith. 5. Your community is an awesome support.
  • We had a foster son who had very bad seizures and was put on medication. He lives a very normal life. Your son is going to be fine.
  • When Josh said, “this has changed our perspective,” that’s what our Holy Father does for us through hardship and trials! Praying for you and your sweet family! Hold onto Jesus, Megan!

    Megan, I don’t know if you will see this message and maybe someone has already mentioned this but maybe have him checked for Lymes? My Dad, after a hunting trip had seizures for the first time in his life. After years of doctors and medicine they discovered lymes and traced it back to that hunting trip and a tick bite. And the seizures were a symptom of the tick bite! Praying for you and your family!!
  • I might be Jewish but I know "the will of God will never lead you where the grace of God cannot keep you" with so much love and constant prayers for you all...someone in Georgia loves you. Peace to you, in all you do... 🤲🩵

    My mother had epilepsy from age 5 until she died at age 80 from something else. She went to college, had a career, married and had children, went to church, entertained at our home, and travelled. There is hope.
  • A few years ago my husband had a traumatic brain injury, one of my go to passages was Psalm 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, and ever present help in trouble.
  • @Heavncentt
    From a Mom who has walked through some scary medical things with my son this past year, Megan- you need to breath, calm down, and just focus on each day as it comes. Things could be so so much worse than what you are dealing with. It feels like a lot and it is, but you are are working through the best way possible. Keep your stress away from Fletcher, he will sense it. Trust the specialists, but know your son and advocate for him. You got some of the very best news, the MRI was clear and showed NO masses! It might just be a bit of time to find the right medication protocol for him, therapy's, etc.

    Hi Megan, my daughter was diagnosed with petite mal seizures at five. She was on medication until she was 13. She out grew them. She is 28 and fine! Please stay strong… God is with you….. God is good….🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕
  • @cozy_k8
    Continuing to pray for you all! "Weeping may endure for the night, but joy comes in the morning." Psalms 30:5 ❤

    Oh Megan.... I have a daughter with a shunt (hydrocephalus caused from Spina Bifida). Our life was constant emergency for years. Your voice explaining your trip to the ER is something I can absolutely relate to! I'm so very sorry. My daughter has had 12 surgeries and while it's a norm for our life now (last week we rushed her to get brain and spine xrays) I still get shaken. <3 My prayers are with you, for strength and for healing for your sweet boy. Welcome to being a medical mama, it's a community you never wanted, ever, but you'll find we're a tough and comforting group of women as time goes on. My daughter is praying for your son (she watches your channel with me sometimes). May God have mercy on you and you see the goodness of His provision the way we have.

    Right after my husband died suddenly and my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, my 8 yr old started having seizures. I was already a grief-stricken mess so I thought I was going to lose him. He couldn't function or respond during them. He would just suddenly collapse to the ground. They were happening frequently. We went through numerous specialists and many tests, including having a 72 hour EEG, where they caught many seizures. They diagnosed him with non-epileptic seizures. He had them for 6 months then they just stopped, as strangely as they started. He then never had another one. He just graduated high school. His last one was over 9 years ago. His doctors think it is definitely a non-issue for him now.
  • My heart goes out to you all. My son was diagnosed with epilepsy right around the same age. One of the best things we did was to travel to a major medical center with epilepsy specialists. It made things so much better and the only thing I regret is that we didn't do it sooner. I've heard nothing but good things about CHOP in Philly and their epilepsy program. Not sure how far that would be for you guys. Know that my prayers are with you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
  • Praying for you all. I'm an RN, a christian, and Mama of 5 grown kids. God is always in control.
  • As a seizure momma I understand, praying for you all !!!! There are so many of us mommas walking this road of agony for our Special Ones
