Guest sheila Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I woke at 2 AM to find Natasha having a violent seizure that lasted at least 5 minutes and included losing her bladder and foaming at the mouth and bleeding from her nose and mouth. I helped her as best I could and got her comfy on a bed, fed her a little ice cream and laid a moist towel over her as she was very hot. At 6 AM she attempted to get up to go out for a potty and before she reached the door she fell to the floor and had another violent seizure with even more blood coming from her nose and mouth. When the vet saw her and did the exam he concluded she was having strokes caused by either blood clots or a tumor in her brain. The vets opinion was that given her age (10) and the fact that she was seizing so severely that even with treatment that would include around the clock monitoring, her prognosis was not good. At most I could buy her a little more time and that she seemed to be in considerable discomfort. Natasha was helped to the bridge this morning at 6:30 AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bowiebears Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 I am so sorry for your loss. Even when we knows it's the best thing, and are prepared for it, letting our furkids go is very difficult. May you find comfort and peace in the knowledge that one day we will all be together at The Bridge. --Isaac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
