Understanding

I'm am not responsible for any of my dogs' names.  Piccolo was named by her foster dad, a musician.  It means little in Italian.  Madeline means little in French.  Strange and fitting coincidence.  After our episode last week, I now get why she is mine.  I have an overwhelming feeling that I am the one to take care of this little creature.  I have a history of adopting older, and special needs dogs, even though this time, I didn't know that it would be the case.  I know nothing of Madeline's medical history, and she had another little seizure late last night.  It didn't seem as severe as the first, and she recovered fairly quickly.  I need to do some research about holistic remedies, because apparently the medication used for seizures has nasty side effects.  So, it is what it is.  We're moving forward.
Knitting content resumes shortly!

My cat had a couple of seizures when she was young and then never had another until a few months before she died. My little cat was diabetic. You might want to have Madeline tested for that to see if she has it. (Hugs) from me and my animals to you and yours.
