    I'm so sorry I can't be of any help. I can only keep you both in my thoughts.
    I hope that the medication stabilises Jackie very soon.

    Zoee has had about 4 or 5 seizures in her 3 years. They've been far apart so medication is not necessary at this time. But I totally understand how draining and upsetting it is to go through it, not only for you but the dog as well. I have a small supply of Valium for Zoee just incase she has another. I have not been able to find a trigger for Zoee's seizures, especially since they are so seldom.
    I am hoping that Jackie's fits stop and you have a long rest time.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I am taking admitting Jackie into the vets for overnight care. I can't handle it anymore. She had another fit, then broke through the barricade and fell down the steps.

    Have they done tests to see if there is anything wrong besides epilepsy that suddenly brought this on? I'm so sorry for what your going through.

    I am so sorry, Jackie. Jackie is lucky to have landed in a foster home that is so attentive and taking such good care of her special needs. Prayers going out that things will calm down.
