Sweet Lucy

My poor sweet Lucy. Yesterday she didn't eat any food, which made me nervous... but I tried to not worry. Then around midnight she walked into our bedroom and had a seizure. She has never had a seizure before and I was terrified. Over the next 4 hours she had 6 more seizures each one lasting 1-3 seconds and she was very unsteady on her feet.

As soon as the vet opened this morning, I made her an appointment where they took blood work and prescribed Phenobarbital to control seizures. The vet seemed concerned that she had several in a row and wants to prevent more from happening with the Phenobarbital.

Lucy is just resting today, unsteady but no seizures at all. I should find out the result of the blood work later this week and hopefully we can narrow down what is causing the seizures.

Please keep her in your prayers and hopefully I'll know more soon!

Here is a picture of her enjoying her tree a few days ago:
