The dictionary defines incorrigible as...

difficult or impossible to control or manage. They do not include Henry's picture there but I am quite certain that it is a mere oversight.

During the past two months I have watched him have nine grand mal, cluster seizures for which he is now on two medications in an attempt to control them. The past two weeks after adding in the second medication I thought that he was having slight, mini seizures because he would be on his side, paddling his legs, and vocalizing. My heart would drop as Tula and I would run over to him. Each time though he promptly got up and went about doing as he chose showing none of the previous post seizure activities.

I grew suspicious, at no time during the true seizures did he ever vocalize.

The next time it happened I silently crept over to where he was, peered around the door and discovered him "having a seizure" but pausing every so often to see if we were coming. When I called his name...up he popped.

In an odd turn of events the "mini seizures" have stopped because they no longer are generating the desired response.

He was thrilled today by the overnight falling of fresh snow and had a wonderful play session in it. Incorrigible...
