Just talked to Sadies vet, not the vet at the hospital. He is in CO so it took him awhile to call me back, I called him first before I took her to the hospital. I explained everything to him and he says do not let the hospital give her any iv fluids, this should only be used if she is dehydrated. After talking with him, he knew exactly what I was talking about and he seems to think Sadie is having Petit Mal seizures. He tried very hard to reassure me that this is not painful to her and then I asked him why would she be getting these she is only going to be 2 years old and he said that between the ages of 2 and 4 is when they normally start. So I looked it up on the internet and I am thinking he is right. He said it is also called a focal seizure where the brain focuses on one part of the body, in this case her legs. He described to me exactly what was happening with her and he has not even seen her yet. He wants me to bring her in on Monday and he will do the blood work. He asked me what the blood work was showing and I told him I did not have it done because they told me it could run the bill up way past 500 dollars, he was amazed at that and told me I was smart to wait. He will do the blood work and if all is well he will put her on a medication to help with the seizures. I believe all the prayrers that are being said for my baby are really helping so please keep praying. I love my fellow YT's
