It\u2019s not going well for Shadow. Mum is at her wits end with not knowing what more she can do to help. Yesterday morning when Shadow got up at 6am they went outside and Mum thought all was well. Then when Shadow came back indoors, the point at which she is normally fine for the rest of the day, she had a dizzy spell and keeled over. Mum said it was different to the other episodes. Shadow has never been obviously dizzy before. This time there was no coughing to warn Mum, just Shadow staggering around in a circle and then collapsing to the floor. On the bright side she didn\u2019t take too long to recover, but it has completely confused Mum as it doesn\u2019t completely follow the pattern we\u2019ve observed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After Shadow has an episode she has a very clingy day. Mum had lots of phone calls to make and deliveries arriving. It meant she needed Shadow to sit with Dad for a while, but Shadow wasn\u2019t even happy to do that. Even though she and Dad are very close, she couldn\u2019t bear not being where she could see Mum and know she was there to help if needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the bright side, I took one of the phone calls and it worked out rather well. It was the car crate company saying there were two possible crates for the boot of the car and the second one was a little larger. It didn\u2019t cost anymore and I\u2019m sure when it arrives Mum won\u2019t notice that it\u2019s several centimetres wider than she was expecting\u2026 and longer\u2026 and taller. I just thought I\u2019d be much more comfortable in it so she\u2019s bound to be happy. I do hope I\u2019m right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
