Help my Gordi come out of this very hard one

Donation protected
UPDATE: We are back at the hospital again . We started lowering our baby’s meds and just on the 2nd day of doing so he started seizing again, this time seizures were stronger and longer . It was hard to control them at home even tho I had the rescue medicines and all so we took him back. Even at the hospital, after the IV meds he had another seizure . Now he needs to come in person to see a neurologist which will cost only to get in and see them $5k for a brain MRI to check what’s going on inside his head. My human baby was born with a defect on her foot and she is getting surgery out of the country to fix it, cause in here it was extremely extremely expensive and not covered in full by insurance and this is the reason I’m not able to cover all the expenses my fur baby needs in order to get a diagnostic and do what’s best for his condition . So I have no other than to ask for your help . Please please share our story, we need all the help we can get, maybe we can even find a neurologist able to help … Thank you with all my heart

Very hard couple of days for us: So these days have been very difficult for us to say the less. I’ve been so scare of even calling the doctor or going to there to know about my baby Blu aka Gordi. Seizures are scary and in a dog this big is even more horrible . I’m all covered in hematomas for just trying to helping during each event. I know he was physically doing better at the doctor and no seizures but he was barking like crazy and even tho they were seeing his improvement I know that neurologically he was not. So since I brought him home is like I have a total different dog, crying, pacing , panting all the time. He couldn’t lay down to rest for more than 3 or 5 mins. So I’ve joined all the seizures groups and mastiff health groups you could imagine and been reading health journals non stop and I found another medication that’s I’ve used before and like and the doc agreed to add it to his routine . Since then he can sleep and rest , he recognizes me already and the other dogs , wag his tail , plays outside and is doing a lot better. Hopefully he will get use to the meds soon as start coming back to his very calm and quiet self . He’s still gonna be home for a couple of more days before going back to the hospital to try and take him off the anti seizure meds. Thank you once again for your support and unconditional love, it means the world to me ♥️.





Hi everyone!!! I’m writing this with tears in my eyes and pieces of my heart in my hand. Everyone who knows me, know my love for dogs and that I would give my everything for one of mines . This is a very hard one guys, not lot of you know that I’ve lost my Boss recently and I didn’t even have the strength to tell everyone cause I can barely talk about it , he was my everything and I had to let him go. It has been one of the worst time of my life for sure, I can’t even tell how much I need and miss him. After I lost him, thanks to a friend of mine I got a mini Boss which is now 8 months old and today he’s given me the biggest scared I’ve had in long time. So last night he started acting a bit different, like walking non stop and he was not comfortable while laying down. His breathing, pooping and peeing were ok and at the end of the night he finally find a position next to me on his bed and went to sleep. This morning he was fed and again went out to do his things perfectly . Later on he started doing the same non stop walks as last night . I called my good friend DVM ( doctor in veterinary medicine ) and he said that I should just keep a close eye and make sure he was not getting worse. Then he finally lays down and all of the sudden started seizing …. let me tell you guys it was so so hard and heart braking to see… tho I acted really quick and jump on him and helped him pass that. I called my friend again to let him know I was gonna bring him to the hospital and while I was on the phone it happened again. Then in the car and then at the hospital for a total of 5 seizures in less than 3hrs. They immediately put him on anti- seizure meds and sedated him. They did blood work which does not indicates any organ malfunction or toxicity. They also did X-RAYS of his abdomen and found what seems to be a metallic ring in his stomach which might be causing the seizures. Doc says he has seen cases where pups eats things that can lead to this kind of neurological symptoms. I’m really praying and hoping this is the case cause it gets a definitive solution. Right now he’s being prep for an emergency endoscopy to take the foreign body out of his stomach. After it’s done they will take him out of the seizure meds and hopefully he’ll be fine. If not , then we are dealing with a more serious neurological problem and will need and MRI and an encephalic liquid aspiration to get a diagnosis. My heart is aching and my mind can’t stop thinking about the worst really, I’m at lost , just here waiting and writing to ask for your help so I can do all the things he needs to be ok. I would never in a thousand times would ask for anything like this if I didn’t really need it. He will need to remain hospitalized after the endoscopy so he can be monitored and I’m hoping the bills don’t come much higher than I were initially told. Again thanks to everyone for reading me and help me.
With all my love
Thanks
Clau
