Update on rumely

New vet said that the one vet should have had us come in after the six in a half hour or at the very least had us bring him in after the first seizure after the pheno barb in a half an hour... She is going to have us do four zonicimide morning and night instead of three and three gabapenton morning and night. We will try that on Friday night in case it doesn't work.

Wow... poor fella. Really hope this vet knows her stuff! It may be an exercise in trial and error to get his meds right. Hoping for the best! :hugs

We haven't really had "great" sleep since Thursday night as we are still waking up to every noise anything makes in the house thinking it is a seizure. He hasn't had any since Friday but we are still on edge. Last night I started work on my moms Christmas present.

Her "grandpups" mean the world to her and she always asks for pictures of them so, I figure this will be special for her.

Well, we had to replace our front window this year. Early spring Rumely broke the inside pane and it was just time for the old window to come out. Turns out a coworker had one the same size so we bought it from her. Was brand new, never used but had sat a while. Got it home and it was bigger.... much bigger. We also found out there was no header above the window on a truss bearing wall.... :smack Whoever built this house.... Should have never been allowed to build houses.:he This is one of many jobs in the house that make us go "Hmmmm" but slowly we are getting all the demons worked out and making it ours. :clapNext order of business is CURTAINS! We can finally get curtains! EEEK!

And Sadie, she has become a totally different dog! She used to be nervous and dislike anyone different at the house but since bringing her for car rides alone and going into the feed store with me or the dog park (once for the grand opening) she now LOVES people and has mellowed waaaay out. She still shows a ton more Great Pyrenees traits than even Rumely but she isn't stressed out anymore and that is what we aimed for. :clap

All in all, it was a super productive and eventful weekend filled with lots of good friends and family time! We certainly don't get to get out much but have made it a point to just do it now. :D =D
