    Glad the new doctor is willing to take a deeper look and be open to different approaches to try to help Taika. Good job being Taika's advocate and pushing for something else besides just the standard response from his old doctor. Hopefully the new doctor can find something that works in Taika's best interest.

    When I lived in Vegas, my 16 had autoimmune disease. Doctors couldn't help and just one drug after drug. But a doctor from LA comes once a month and helped my daughter. Now she is 28 and doing better :) keep asking questions and researching.

    Love you three! My son started getting seizures at about 5 months old and honestly we have seen so many doctors and specialists and done tests after tests after tests including MRI’s, extensive genetic tests, etc. We went through everything with him and couldn’t find out why to this day. We had the same thing happen, where we were constantly adjusting meds and adding and taking away different meds until we found meds that worked for him. After we did that the seizures stopped at a little bit after he turned one with the proper meds. He is now 3 years old and we are taking away medications little by little, and so far so good! Our hope and plan along with his neurologist is for him to eventually be able to be off the meds completely! You two are doing great! Prayers for your family on this journey, it’s not an easy one, Taika is lucky to have such a caring and loving family who advocates for him!

    Just a suggestion if you guys haven't tried genetic testing. Sometimes illnesses can be hidden behind genetics. If you and Geo test your genetics you can find illnesses that are caused by a mixture of genetics rather than a stand alone illness. This could definitely be diet related.

      I always wondered if things like high caffeine intake (e.g. espresso or pre workout) can impact the baby's health if mother or father have high dosages leading up to conception. It would be interesting to know the full impact of it, as I love coffee (decaf just doesn't taste the same)

    Happy with this new doctor, my grandson is 7 he's in the spectrum, he's on medication and even though it's not the same as Taika I can understand the feeling heard and connected to the doctor. My grandson's doctor treats him like a lab rat and not a little boy. It's frustrating. I'm happy to watch his journey to a healthy little man!

    Currently doing my undergrad as a pre-dent student. Have a professor that stresses the importance of being a doctor that explores the grey areas of medicine compared to a doctor who thinks practicing medicine/healthcare is black and white. Good call on switching doctors and hope you guys can find a solution. Also, Taika being so quick to say the bad words was funny af. My 8 year old definitely enjoyed his first time saying a few bad words lol.

    When my husband had an aneurysm one of the first signs was him having a seizure. The doctors were like nothing is on the cat scan just come back if it happens again. That's when I learned that a lot of doctor's are reactive not preventative. I'm so glad you found someone willing to take the time and effort to find some better answers.

    Wanted to share something really quick… on their podcast they talked about the way you react to a crazy situation happening in your life. Geo shared she has to tell herself “stop” to be able to stop her thoughts from getting the best of her. I thought that was amazing that someone can do that since I’m am very reactive person and I’m trying to change some of my ways for the best. Yesterday something was going in my life and where I normally would react I out of nowhere told myself out loud to stop and it fknd worked!!!!! I was so proud of myself for actually stopping and not escalating the situation with my emotions.

    My dad when he was younger said he also would have seizures when he was little. He said one time he had one in the middle of the street They never knew what it was, classified it as epileptic seizures. But eventually grew out of them and never had one again. Hopefully everything goes well with Taika.

    This was such a refreshing video to watch! I’m glad you guys found better care for Taika! I was 15 years old when I first started to get tonic clonic seizures and I didn’t even know I was having them or when they would happen. They would happen when I’d wake up in the morning, I’d feel like I just woke up from the most terrible sleep w my body feeling exhausted and sore. The first year of trying to get them controlled is the hardest for everyone! Luckily I’ve got these seizures handled and they’re just a fun fact about me. I know it’ll be the same for Taika! Taikas such a strong boy 💪🏽

    Today especially patients really need someone to advocate for them & have providers that relate well w them. I have had to debate w medical staff through care of my loved ones & myself (and I even worked at a clinic). You guys are doing a great job navigating through all of this. Just a side note, be careful while recording in medical common areas like waiting rooms so you don't get yourself or the facility in any hot water regarding HIPAA regulations. Keep up the great job in Taika's care! Prayers for continued positive progress! 🙏💛

    If they can't find anything wrong with him from MRI scans etc, maybe Taika's problem is that be gets so hyper that he "pumps himself up" into a seizure. I'm curious to see what his readings are when he goes into his "hulk mode" (an example being like when he was in the back of the car and he's fidgeting and rolling his eyes and screaming etc). Sometimes I'm like dude, calm down, a blood vessel is going to pop, so maybe you should try to teach him some sort of relaxation techniques to calm him down a bit.

    its crazy cuz I as well im going through something similar with doctors. I live in moreno valley and the doctors that my dad deals with just keep telling us my dads brain is shrinking but give us no kind of solution and are just so bland. We got a second opinion at UCLA with a different neurologist and are waiting for results but its still such a forever wait process. UCLA is a trustworthy hospital for sure because in 98 my mom suffered a brain aneurism and we almost lost her in Downey Community Hospital but my dad had her transferred to UCLA and by Gods grace she was saved! Im praying for lil Taika and you guys as a family for some answers and a solution soon.

    Is it possible that Taika hit his head and could have developed a TBI? Sometimes they go undetected especially when they are young because kids fall or get hit and don’t speak up about it and the TBI develops over time. Gets gradually worse, There is a really good doctor in Costa Mesa. Amen Clinics. He specializes in brain activity and can help Taika because it seems like it could be a neurological issue. I hope for the best for all three of you. I’ve been watching you so long I feel like you’re my older cousin or something, I hope that little guy gets the help he needs.

    Docs like the first one don't have any empathy for the patient and are looking to squeeze every dollar out of you before they "refer" you to another doctor. I've seen it more times than not at a lot of different clinics I have worked at.
    Docs like the second one actually care for the well-being of not only the patient but also the parents. They are looking to fix the problem rather than prolonging it for their own financial benefit. These types of doctors are rare to come by nowadays.

He manipulates teachers and substitutes at the school.He cannot be alone. he has started stealing things from the grocery store after and before school. I have been to 4 different doctors and they say he is normal and doing it on purpose and there is nothing we can do.I feel hopeless. I often cry because of my son. Teacher calls me every single day and complains that my son has been stealing food from other children again. the other parents complain about me too. he pees on himself all the time and the room he is in smells of pee.
