The Bible update
Just for the record: I am reading the Orthodox Study Bible. It is actually longer than the Protestant or Catholic versions. I just started reading 1st Maccabee (page 600). I would highly recommend getting a copy as the book Tobit was amazing! It was a direct reference and comparison to Christ. It has left me puzzled as to why it is not included in all Bibles. The book of Judith was also intriguing, so I'd recommend that one as well.
Book # 4: Infantile Spasms
Diagnosis, Management, Prognosis
By James D. Frost Jr. and Richard A. Hrachovy
So the diagnosis of epilepsy for my son moved to infantile spasms about a month ago. As a reader my instinct was to purchase this $80 book for amazon and read it cover to cover as quick as possible. It's a textbook, thus the price. It was readable especially after having read the other epilepsy books. I will say that it is the ONLY recent book I've found online that talks anywhere indepth about infantile spasms. If your child is diagnosed, I highly recommend it. I know the neurologist seems shocked when he saw I had read it, but why wouldn't you want to know everything about the disorder your child has?
And I will say this: our son is doing way better after starting treatment. I will keep you posted on that.
