Dystonia by Joanne Gill-Maddick
100 Word Flash writing prompt entry

We received the news our 8 year old grandson has Dystonia (a condition that causes involuntary movements of muscles.) At birth Logan lacked oxygen to his brain and his first EEG showed zero brain activity. Having shown signs of a bad neck over the past few weeks,his symptoms worsened and his parents took him to a children's hospital in St Johns Nl. His CT scan was good and MRI clear. Dystonia may be the result of lack of oxygen at birth or it could also be genetic. Logan is currently home with family and being treated for his symptoms.

Writing Prompt

Author Notes
We are quite worried we do not know the extent yet how it will effect Logans life it is treatable but not curable. I hope and pray his current treatment will alleviate his symptoms and will lead somewhat of a normal life.
