| Please Pray For Little Magnolia Wednesday Maggie crashed and crashed hard, I noticed Monday she had stuff in her eye and when she woke up she couldn't open her eye, so I cleaned and put saline solution in it and by the next day it was normal, I noticed on Tuesday she has lost a few ounces, but thought it might be from her being sick with her eye, and she is cutting teeth, Wednesday when I got home at 1 she was fine but I weighed her and she had drop weight, so I took her in the kitchen and started giving her milk, she was fine on the floor playing around with the others, but I called the vet to take her in. I had her there by 2:30 , but he said she was dehydrated, so he gave her the lactated ringers under the skin and within 30 she was stiff and couldn't stand, I thought she was died a few times, I rushed her back to the vet and she had gone into Hypoglycemia shock, but the fluids must have brought her sugar level down fast... The only reason I am telling everyone is that when you think that your baby is low sugar, get help fast. Granted Maggie's was a combination of things that made her crash, but I never thought in a million years it could happen that fast, and its taking forever for her to get back to normal, she can finally stand up and take a few steps without falling. I have learned to give shots,(lactated ringers w/Debs pushing) which I hate, and I am feeding her every 2 to 3 hours, and pouring the kyro down her, I have the nutra cal and drops, but the kryo is easier on her stomach. I want to thank some people and they know who they are (Chat) for calling and praying for Maggie and me, and the 2 special people that were on the phone with me telling me what to do and keeping me calm and I know the rest of you would have if I had asked, but I honestly thought I would lose her, and it was to hard to talk about. She is going to make it, I just know it, its going to be slow process, but I am asking now for prayers. This sweet baby girl needs them from her YT family, I believe in the YT prayers. Thanks in advance for your prayers

| Its when there blood sugar gets low, one way of checking is there gums make sure they are pink, get you some nutra cal or kyro syrup on had to give them, if you suspect its low.
