Today I took Jake to see Dr. Butler who is a pediatric neurologist at UT/Houston. This was the follow-up appointment to his episode on mother's day. Dr. Butler was so nice and friendly and had a wonderful accent. I looked him up online and he's from Australia which explains the great accent. He had Jake play with several manipulatives and observed his movement. Jake was able to put several several beads on a rod which apparently is a 2 year skill so Dr. Butler said he was ahead of the curve (we knew that already! :) ). He does believe his episode was caused by the chicken pox vaccine, but had never actually seen this in person before. He had a med. student with him who was quite interested in Jake's unusual case. Dr. Butler said this will have no long term side effects and should never recur again. So there you have it...Jake's case is closed and we have another story to put in the baby book. Praise God that's all it was!
