Thank you for your prayers Catty, Sherry is sure going to need them and thank you Lizzie for your info. I'm sorry but I have no answers for the questions that you've asked. I remember reading an article about hepatic lipidoses and they said that it can come back.
I got an e-mail today from my friend updating me on Sherry's condition.
__________________________________________________ _______________
Sherry was eating wet food Hills C/D chicken along with a little G/D and T/D try, then when she gave up on that was the grocery store stuff, even her favorites like chicken baby food didn't work anymore. She is now way beyond the trying food to get her appetite up just being force fed with K/D that she doesn't like but is formulated for her illness, I suspect she may have to have the tube in the neck surgery again if the specialist just finds ordinary hepatic lipidosis and no other liver diseases. She's on antibiotics by IV today.
She is at her vet now, and we will be going to the DMV Rive Sud as soon as her vet Dr Trudel can get an appointment with a liver specialist she referred me to, so rather than put Sherry through the possibility of 2 tests if the liver aspiration doesn't give enough info, she will go for liver biopsy with a really detailed ultrasound guiding the biopsy that will be more complete and targeted so hopefully will get all the info possible in one try.
Dr. Trudel confirmed what I found on the Google search, the seizures were from the liver disease rather than the new antibiotics, and apparently it is prone to happening during feedings due to the stress on the liver from the food in her bloodstream. Sherry's now on IV with a serum to give her a boost and her antibiotics that way and the blood tests and x-ray to make sure she doesn't have fluid in her abdomen to prep for the biopsy, which I am doing at her regular vet, then just do the specialty test at DMV-RS. She apparently wasn't in as bad shape as she appeared, and is in good enough shape to manage a sedation, but getting the IV boost today to help her as much as possible.
She does like kitten food and tried her darndest about 6 times on the weekend to eat some over about 10 minutes before she had to give up because she felt too crappy. She is grooming herself for the first time in ages, so that's a good sign. I sure hope that I find out once and for all what's going on after this ultrasound guided biopsy with the specialist, vet didn't think an MRI is needed.

So it looks like precious Sherry is in good hands. I just pray that she pulls through again like the last time.
