Keep up the good work Penny Pooh.

{{{HUHS}}} for you and Mom!

Thanks so much pomtzu I really appreciate that. Last night was the first dosage of the new change so we will see how things go. Thanks for the hugs as well, Penny loves them

I am so happy to hear this! Good luck, paws and fingers crossed for Penny to stay seizure free!

I don't know if humans are the same, but my brother used to have a lot of seizures as a child (due to a bleed in the brain). He was able to lower his dosages when he was seizure free and is now completely off medicine and hasn't had a seizure in over 15 years! Not sure if it's the same but there is always hope.

Kisses for beautiful Penny.

Thank you so much dab, and yes dogs are like people, that is what we have been trying to get to with the meds. I would love it if she made it to 6 months,

Would be a new record and that would make me even super duper happy

Thank you

So on Sat. the 11th, Penny had a set back and had a cluster of 3 seizures. She is two weeks in to her new med dosage, and had been 10 weeks and 2 days seizure free, is a great sign and I kinda feel like it was my fault as I had forgotten to go to the feed store to get her some food, they don't open til 9am so she got her meds late by about 3 hours, I know this is not the reason but I just hate this disease, hate it.

So now we start the clock all over again, today is 4 days

Aawww - poor Penny Pooh, and poor Mom too. Seizures can be so frightening and stressful. I went thru them with one of my Lhasas, but she was 15 yrs old and a diabetic too, and there was really no way to get them under control.

Hopefully, this is just a little bump in the road for Penny. Sending good vibes and lots of prayers, that she will be able to get back on track again.

We sure do have a couple of problem children - don't we??? But they're worth their weight in gold, and we will do anything for them!!!
