Nathanael's 200th Day on Ketogenic Diet

By -
Amazing ... 200 days have come and gone and Nathanael is doing well on his Ketogenic Diet. In fact Nathanael looks forward to his meal periods and thru his Meal periods he actually is motivated to "work" to get his food.

Initially (September 2006) when we started on the Ketogenic Diet we were apprehensive. Afterall we have tried so many things. So so so so many things to try and help control the seizures in Nathanael.

Not knowing that as we were reaching the end of our rope of Options in dealing with Nathanael's seizures, the Ketogenic Diet worked! Nathanael is Seizure Free !!!

We must add, that after reading tons of information, books, documentation of the Ketogenic Diet, that there was only a 20% working chance that the Diet would work on a child. Given the odds, we feel that it not by chance, nor by probability, but it is indeed a Mircale of God in Nathanael's life!

Since the stop of Nathanel's seizures in October, we have seen him achieve his Milestones, as he development progresses ahead each day.


We are BLEST by God because :

  • Nathanael seizures has stopped
  • Nathanael doesn't mind the food. (He's eating nearly the same cycle of Food and RCF Milk for the last 200 days), and he looks forward to his meal periods :)
  • Nathanael is responding positively to his therapies and showing improvements every day
  • Nathanael has stopped one of his Anti-Epileptic Drug (AED) - Frisium (Clobazam)

Thank you for your Prayers, Support and Love towards Nathanael and our Family. We thank you for being Strong with us as we go thru this absolutely amazing chapter of our lives. God is indeed our Strength and our Hope and our Portion! :)

We wanna BOAST of what God has done in Nathanael's life. We wanna Shout God's Fame that in this 200 Days God has been Faithful each day of Nathanael's life!

Thank You JESUS ... NO MORE Frisium!!!!

ONLY GOD can do this in Nathanael's Life ......

My God Is So Big

So Strong And So Mighty

There's Nothing My God Cannot Do

This is very encouraging news. Praise God for answers to prayer.

Somewhere deep inside, we also learn how to persevere and trust God. This has stretched our faith, and we learn to be a stronger Christian.

Not only spiritually but medically it changes our Malaysian record. The diet was never encouraged locally in the medical field, if there are more cases like this, I am sure it will helps a lot of people (child & parents). I have referred his case to some Epilepsy parents support group in oversea and received many cheers. My son has a need for this diet and we are still trying to persuade his doctor. Thanks for sharing and God bless you all. TeeBK & family.

Nathanael's Balancing Board

By dareNtiff -
Image
Nathanael was pretty blessed during Christmas (we've not blogged about the kids' Christmas yet) .. and Nathanael was blessed from 5Ku Por & 6 Ku Por with a Balancing Board. As part of Nathanael's therapy and daily exercise to stand, we've added a one step up, to aid Nathanael to balance when he stands. Nathanael still needs to learn to balance on his own, as you can see he's still leaning on the door! So pray for him yah!! A Close Up shot of the Balance Board. It functions pretty much like a see saw. Where Nathanael will stand on the the far end of the boards to keep his balance upright! [tags : darentiff nathanael ]

Handy Bergson made Nathanael his Swing

When we first posted up Nathanael's new sensory integration exercise , to be swung in cicular movement on a make-shift swing, we asked for help to build a swing. We are so thankful for friends who read the blog, and friends who have the knowledge and skillset to help build one for Nathanael. Bergson was telling us that he read about our plea for help to build a swing for Nathanael last week. And this weekend he popped over to build a swing for Nathanael! Just like that!! BIG Thank You uncle Bergson!! Making of Nathanael's Swing [ story by Nathanael ] The idea was to get this little U-shaped hook to be stuck firmly in the ceiling, so that this would form the base structure to hand the swing. [For the trained eye, you will know that this is the same hook used for the Ceiling Fan] Placing the U-Hook up on the Ceiling, Bergson took some measurements and immediately started drilling into the ceiling. Thank GOD that Handy Bergson has all the canggih tools ... Power Drill with L...
