Saturday, Max had the worst seizure to date. After 1 hour of cluster seizures, Kyle called MedVet...only our luck would this happen on a weekend or afterhours. He had to been seen or it could be fatal. Kyle carried Max into the back of the Tahoe and headed to Worthington. On the way there, he had 2 more cluster seizures in the back. I had to stay at home b/c the kids were napping...I wasn't waking them up to see something so scary.
Of course, he came out of the seizure as he arrived, but Kyle chose to have him seen anyway. They could tell he had been through a lot and decided it was best for him to stay overnight and begin a treatment of Phenobarbital via IV. At this point, they believe he is epileptic.
Kyle returned to MedVet this morning to pick up the pooch. They sent him home with Phenobarbital tablets and Valium, which is an anal medicine we are to give while he is actively seizing...I love the dog and all, but come on!! Kyle is in charge of that one...
So, happy to say Max is doing better...he is in a drunken state and sleeps all day...but no more seizures, yet. He will have a check up this week at the vet.
On a lighter note, Ady Jade got into some pink paint today. She thought it would be fun to taste it...but her Dad came to the rescue just in time. I washed it out, brushed her teeth, and called Poison Control...the verdict was "she would be just fine". I think she thought it was baby lotion...definitely my daughter! :D
