i miss my doggy
no real news that dad didnt post. i went to visit the baby today and bring the zonisamide to them. he was cute and licked me a lot. seemed really curious to all the weird noises he doesnt hear in his life at home. then he just kinda nuzzled and slept pressed up against my face. and he had a little velcro kinda sock thing on his arm to hold the hook up thingy for his iv. it had giraffes and looked like some kinda baby clothes or somethin. i talked to the er dr(dr kirk) whose kinda cute in a weird nerdy way. and expressed my concerns to him about the aparent correspondence in the diet change and serious onset of seizures. he said he would relay the info to dr wilder whom i have never met but seems to be dealing with the majority of this. he in turn talks to dr dewey who is a neurologist at cornell. who i found out by looking on the web has done what appears to be much of the work establishing zonasimide as a reputable anti convulsant in dogs. gigos seizures have seemed to improve from monday night into tuesday until now. i guess overnight the night i brought him there he had 3-4 more. today he had one at 8am and another at 2pm. i left there at 845 hoping he wouldnt have anymore overnight. he'll have to stay for at least another 24hrs from when i left so hopefully he can come home tomorrow night. but if hes still having multiple seizures everyday then who knows. dr wilder said it costs about 100-150 dollars a day to keep him there on the occasional valium booster. so now im home wasting time tyring to keep my mind busy until im tired enough to go to bed. which will be soon. thanks for the support family. i love you guys all very much.
