I had a yorkie that was zooming around in the back yard, and when he ran from an area lit bright with sunlight, and crossed into a deep shadow, he was not able to see, and ran full tilt, into a brick wall. He knocked himself out stone cold....I snatched him up, and did CPR on him until we got to the emergency clinic....(Sunday, of course!)....they worked frantically on him....multitude of meds, oxygen, incubator to keep body temp up, Mannitol given IV, Prednisone and a multitude of other drugs.....his swelling in his brain did go down, and he did recover.....I was warned about possibility of seizure activity for the rest of his life....he never did have another seizure.....so dont give up hope....it may look grim, but he may, he CAN, pull thru this....it has happened before...... |
