2 months seizure free!

We haven't been incident free, I will get to that more later, but we have avoided a seizure at least.  Since the tube surgery, Austin has been feeling much better.  Two weeks ago a cold started going around the house.  It started with Noah, then Austin, now Adam.  Austin had his first post-op ear infection. It was so gross, it was oozing and bleeding out.  At least the tubes are doing their job, but I wasn't prepared for that.  We got some ear drops hoping it would cure the issue, however, he still was very cranky and having several BHS per day.  We had to return to the Dr a few days later to get a stronger antibiotic.  He seems to be doing MUCH better now, and the CDIFF symptoms have not returned.  Thank god.  He hasn't gained much weight lately, but given his condition it isn't surprising.  He is also getting like 8 teeth, which doesn't help.  We are also working on getting him to eat more food and less bottles.  Everything is a very slow process.  He still isn't walking yet, but likes to practice now and then for many bribes, like candy.
