We had plans Friday to watch a movie C got from NetFlix. Well, that went down the drain when we found the DVD was cracked. We of course just told Steve and Sara over at New Ming (new Friday dinning spot) that we hardly ever get damaged DVDs.

A broken DVD was the least of our concerns, however. Around 1am, Gatsby (our older cat) had a seizure again. I say again because he had one in December of last year. We did the emergency vet thing, weren’t terribly impressed by the service we got and Gatsby recovered, never to have on again. Well, Friday he had one, then another - off to the vet we went. They wanted to keep him until Sunday. As it was 5am Saturday when he told us this, that meant a day. We weren’t thrilled with the idea because we just wanted him home.

Saturday he had 2 more seizures. We visited him and were told they’d start him on anti-seisure medication. Medication that he’d likely be on the rest of his life. We were also told of a Neurologist for pets in Fairport - we were never given this information last time. Visiting him was hard, we both cried a good amount. We tried to keep ourselves busy the rest of Saturday as we were both pretty upset and now wanted Gatsby home more than ever. We understood he was being cared for, but it wasn’t the same - we wanted to be the ones to care for him (alas, we didn’t have a full staff of vets and nurses at home)

Sunday was a better day. We were missing him, but we caught up on sleep. We headed to Geneva to go to a wedding which turned out to be a very nice time and a very good distraction.

Currently Gatsby hasn’t had a seizure since 4pm Saturday and he rested a lot yesterday. They started him on the medication and we plan on getting an appointment with the Nuero-doc today.

New job starts today and I’m excited, though very distracted with what is going on with Gatsby.
