Larissa is 14

Larissa turned 14. It is hard to believe how fast she is growing up and up! She is over 5'9" and towers over me. She is a delight to be around and has a very loving heart. She has good relationships with most of her siblings.

She is currently taking karate, keyboard and singing lessons, has two agents in Atlanta and volunteers at church. We continue to homeschool.

We are still struggling with her seizures. We are currently struggling to find a good neurologist. Her doctor wanted to send her to one in Charlotte but they wouldn't accept our Tricare insurance. Then she tried one in Florence and Tricare did approve it but they lost their pediatric neurologist. So we went to the office where the neurologist went and he had retired.I am trying to see if her medicaid would be accepted out of state to go to Charlotte. MUSC is an option but they are 2 1/2 hours away and they really did nothing for us last time. Yes, we are frustrated. Yes, she still has nightly seizures. And I am getting off subject, Larissa had a great birthday!

Can you tell what she is currently into?




She was delighted with her gifts although there weren't many and they didn't cost much, they were specifically bought with her in mind.

  1. Maybe you could just take her to a military hospital to be seen. Happy sweet 14 to Larissa.
