Wow.  been a while since I posted.
Not a whole lot going on these days with Larry.  he's off of the lamotrigine, and on keppra.  So far, so good.  no seizures.
A lot of grumpiness though.  That's a side effect of Keppra, so we're working through it.  I think he needs to talk to other stroke survivors, but he's resisting right now.  We'll see in the new year what happens.

Larry's doing very well in OT - he's getting a fair bit of movement in his hand. The "flexors" of his fingers keep toning up, so we're going to try Botox.  that will be in January.  I hope it works, because he gets frustrated with the tight fist his hand makes when he's trying to do things.
