Hi everyone, a little update on Chance...
Chance has been doing really well still. He is acting like how he used to act before he got sick. He had a doctors appointment with his neurologist a few days ago and the doctor said he was very pleased with how Chance is looking/acting. He is starting to wean him off of his prednisone (the steroid to ease swelling in the brain), so he gets it every other day now instead of every day. He is still on the 3 other medications for the seizures. Because of how Chance has been reacting to the meds (and the lessening of the steroids) , the neurologist said that we could just be looking at epilepsy and not a brain tumor, which is amazing news! Obviously we can't know for certain unless an MRI is done, but he is showing good signs.
