[tri-med] Re: microchephaly- holly

how old was morgan when his seizures began? Jason has not had any yet, and he 
is 15 months old. Jasons head too seems proportionate to his small body, but 
when you hold him close and really look, you see just how tiny his head is. its 
really his face that is just so tiny too. 
What do the dr's tell you about microcephaly? is there a life span limit due to 
this? My neurologist tells me nothing. 

Did Morgans head stop growing at times just like jasons has, or did it just 
grow very slowly but did continuosly grow?

Thanks,
Sharon

Morgan has microcephaly.  I guess we don't think much about it, though.  It is 
ot like he is this big kid and he has a "pin" head.  I'm not sure if it is 
eally noticeable to others or not.  It is due to his t18.  It is part of a 
ossible chain of events leading to him having seizures.  He has t18, this 
aused microcephaly, and because of this he has seizures.  But, it is possible 
e would have had seizures even if he did not have microcephaly. So, in Morgan's 
ase it isn't anything we worry about.
