Re: R.I.P. Apache
Brian,
I am so sorry to hear about your beloved Apache. May he rest in peace. At least there won't be any more suffering. It is such a hard decision to let them go... Hang in there!

Re: Hi from Amber
Hi Last night was really bad! After just two doses of Keppra Amber was so restless, knocking herself against the furniture and overall not well at all. This morning she has been sick.

Re: Help requested
Hi Thank you for your replies. At present after adding the bromite to the pexion Amber was seizure free for 28 days in the first month and then it was 25 on the second.
