I believe she had been doing the syrup, etc. But nothing was working anymore  And this was two weeks after surgery for insulinoma. And I hope so too, Jackie. I know I've never seen what was meant by "hind end weakness" before, or the type of "staring off" I've heard about. The reason she made the video was so people could recognize what was happening. She couldn't help her wee one any longer, and was hoping this would help others. They helped him cross the bridge not long after the video was made.

The best way I can describe it Heather is her back end wavers and her front end "looses track" if where it is. Kind of like over compensating.

I just got off the phone with the clinic about this. Until I can have the cbc done treatment would be the same, front end or back end as her bg is low due to SOMETHING. We have our appt for that as well as the vet appt Nov 10
