I'm completely normal

After a long 30 hours at Primary Children's Medical Center--where they poked me, prodded me, stuck a bunch of electrodes on my head for an EEG, and even put me under for an MRI--the diagnosis is in: I have the jimmy-legs.

The pediatric neurologists say I have nothing that would indicate a problem with seizures. They even think my seizure may not have been a seizure at all, but something they call, "The Fifth Day Fits." They're kind of like those tremors most people get when they're sleeping. Anyway, they told my mom and dad to watch me, but they felt confident that they'd never have to see me around those parts again.

So, after spending 9 of my first 10 days on earth in hospitals, I'm going to take a break from that scene for awhile (hopefully 100 years or so) and start living life as a normal kid.

OK, I do have a little jaundice left, as you can see in my eyes in the photo above, but rest assured that's getting better every day.

Oh, and in other news, my "official" hospital photos have been posted if you'd like to check those out.

I'm looking forward to meeting a lot of you soon.
