My Mom is in the Hospital

 Oh no! Good vibes for your mom. ((hugs))

 Oh Sharon I am so sorry - sending loads of prayers for her health and for Keno's adoption to succeed. And hugs for you, deep breaths and step by step

Good thoughts for your Mom.

 Prayers from RI.  The white coats treating your mom need to find a diagnosis; we all know from working with our furkids, that is half the battle right there.  Then  treatment plan can be developed and implemented.

 I bet Keno is happy with you!   And it is good for you to have him to cuddle at this time.

Sharon, I'm so sorry.  I hope they find out what's going on soon.  I know you've got to be worried sick.

I wish I was close enough to keep Keno for a while until things are worked out with your mom because I understand how upsetting it must be for your mom if she thinks she might not be able to adopt him.  If she isn't able to adopt him for whatever reason, I'm sure he'll find a good home though that's little comfort to your mom right now. 

Sending lots of good thoughts and vibes for her, for you and for Keno's adoption. 

Oh no !! 

Sending good thoughts and healing vibes out to your Mom.

Sending calming vibes out to you.

Sending good home vibes out to Keno (which I hope winds up being with your Mom).

((((( Sharon )))))

Vibes being sent for quick diagnosis, easy treatment and finalized adoption of Keno!

 Oh no!  Will definitely be thinking about your Mom.  Hopefully they find a diagnosis quickly.  Will also keep Keno's adoption in mind. (((hugs)))

Oh, no!  I'm so sorry to hear the news about your Mom, Sharon.  You must be a wreck.  I hope the doctors can diagnose something soon and that with treatment she's feeling like herself again ASAP.  Do they think that the stress and anxiety over the news of her potential job loss contributed to the seizure?  You didn't mention that she had a history of them -- it must be very scary to just have one out of the blue.  Sending loads of good thoughts and vibes from Oregon -- for your Mom, for you, and for Keno.

I'm glad Keno is with you during this.  I'm sure he's confused, too.  Fingers crossed that the shelter will work with you for the best outcome for Keno to stay in your family. 

Keep us posted, and hang in there.

 Hey everyone.  She was lucid today, but I think some sort of emotional breakdown has happened with regards to her job. She didn't lose it, but I won't get into details, but I'm going to try to convince her to not work this weekend (she's being released tomorrow). 

 So far they've found no cause for the seizure.  They were doing a spinal tap tonight, just in the off-chance she does have an infection of sorts without all the normal signs of one.  All other tests, blood work, cat scan, mri, eeg came back normal.  I dunno, maybe this was brought on by extreme anxiety.  Either way, she's doing better now - but she's still highly anxious and I think it may be a psychiatric issue.  She's more herself right now, but I wish she'd consider seeing someone.  I'll try to work on that. 

I wish I could go back tonight, but I'm overtired and need to get some sleep.  Also, she's said some things to me between yesterday and today, that I KNOW were her anxiety and frustration talking - but she said some things pointedly to hurt me.  She's never done that before.  So, I need some sleep (so I'm not so sensitive) and I'll get her tomorrow and spend the weekend with her.

As for Keno (we all decided today to rename him Dino *pronounced deno*), since my significant other thought that WAS his name (he was mishearing Keno) and we all liked it better...suits him.  The humane society was perfectly fine finalizing the adoption once my mom is back home.  They know he's being taken care of, so that's all that matters to them.  He's such a great little dog and he's keeping me amused while I'm here - well at the moment he's passed out cold, finally, after throwing his toys for him about 50 gazzilion times.

 Deno is probably the *best* thing for her.  I can tell you from personal experience that I would do things for my dog that I would NOT do for myself.  I used to joke (but I was serious) that my Prissy (my first dog who was **Mine**) kept me majorly out of trouble!

 She hated alcohol (she'd been abused by a drunk) so I didn't drink.  Instead of hanging out at bars (with a bad bunch of folks I knew at the time) I came home to be with her.  You may be able to help convince your Mom to take it easy simply by appealing to her to take care of Deno since he's been missing her.  At least worth a shot.

 Strain can make them say all sorts of things because it's easier to lash out than it is to deal.  *hugs*  (been *there* this week myself!)
