Rosby's Vet Visit

Well, Rosby continues to improve, but the vet feels she has a brain tumor. One of her eyes is dilated more than it should be and Rosby's behavior the past few weeks does not fit an epileptic profile. So, we continue her meds, treat her as normal as possible, and just hope for the best. The vet couldn't tell me how long we could expect to have with her, he said it could be 5 years or 5 days...that's a scary thing...not knowing what to expect. On a positive note, Rosby doesn't appear to be in pain and she seems to be getting better. Also, the staff at the vet clinic is so wonderful. They were so happy to see Rosby looking so much better today and she gave them lots of kisses...almost like saying, 'thank you for taking care of me'. (They tended to her this past Saturday.) One of the technicians showed me a way to massage behind Rosby's ears and over her eyes to help calm her down. She was the one to help stop her seizures on Saturday. We are thankful for the tip. Thanks again for everyone's continuous thoughts and prayers.
