Jayde - way to think fast. You saved Deegan's life. I don't know what I would have done in your position.

I know I was thinking that! I don't think I would have thought of syrup or honey!!! Way to go!

Jayde,
Im so happy that Little Deegan is doing fine tonite after his episode. Quick thinking, we are so proud. TY for sharing this story so we all remember that our babies can get sick so quick if they dont eat. Nutrical on the carrier is a great idea indeed. Im glad that your vet was very professional and called you back even on a sunday. Please keep us posted.

I am gld Deegan is doing better. That was quick thinking on your part. I think I would have been a basketcase if that happened.

I am glad your baby is ok. I will carry packets of sugar in my carry bag for Mya just incase.

I had an experience like that with Riley my male yorkie. Luckly I had read up online that yorkies can be hypoglycimic. Riley started having seizures at night and we started the corn suryp and peanut butter and had things pretty much under control before getting ahold of the vet. When I took him to the vet he acted like he didn't think that was the problem. I think it was and we are very careful now that both Riley and Chloegyrl have enough to eat even though they are older.

love your yorkies

The thing with the girl at Burger King is ridiculous-- what if it was a diabetic kid that needed the sugar pronto?

Thanks for sharing all the detail of the story, it's very helpful to others! Bravo!

ldenise · 07-10-2005, 06:12 PM

I was just wondering when i was reading your post, if you had told the girl you were diabetic and needed it would she have given you the hard time.

Jennieliz14 · 07-10-2005, 06:24 PM

I think you just described my worst nightmare! Nutrastat really is the best, I have tubes of it everywhere. I'm just so overly paranoid about hypoglycemia, but you can never be too careful. I'm so glad you thought fast and that Deegan is ok.

And are we all agreeing to boycott Burger King?!?!?!

tw4sw · 07-10-2005, 06:36 PM

Thank you for sharing that story. I know it will help me. I will remember to carry some form of glucose at all times when I'm out with my yorkie. So glad he made it through ok.

BRPrincess · 07-10-2005, 07:13 PM

Good for you! I hope I react like you did if that ever happens to my Princess!!!

ssguzzy828 · 07-10-2005, 08:47 PM
