Thanks everybody for the kind words. Lulu has had a few seizures since I posted last so we are keeping a close eye on her. If she continues to have them, I'll take her to the specialist and they will most likely put her on meds. I'm hoping and praying that that won't be necessary. No more seizures, no more seizures, no more seizures.
Jasper seemed to do well on the heart meds for a few weeks and then he started coughing again. Gil took him to the vet this morning and as usual, once the vet started explaining things, he called me and handed the phone to the vet. :) The xray shows the heart compressing the trachea so we've added a med to try to relax the trachea, plus we're increasing the Lasix. He will now get double the dose of Lasix. Keeping fingers crossed that this works.
Jojo is hanging in there and Buster has an appointment with the vet on Friday. I'm going to try to get a urine specimen that morning for a UC:CR to rule out cushing's. If ratio is normal, we'll move on to the thyroid panel.
All of the kitties are fine...YAY!!!

P.S. Marie, if you are reading this, I want you to know that Miss Ella is gorgeous. I think all Aussie's are spectacular but I will always be partial to the merles. I had a blue merle toy aussie named Inkie and a red tri named Rusty. Inky had one blue and one brown eye. Both were Texans, born on a cattle ranch, and they could herd like nobody's business. The big boys had nothing on these little pip squeaks. :D

Crossing fingers with you and saying a few prayers as well that all your babies are okay.
Also sending you some really, really big hugs because you are busy taking care of all of them and all of us I think you should have some hugs just for you.

Count me in!!! I give really good hugs.
It's nice to hear from you Glynda. It sounds like you have everything under control there. There is bound to be a special place in heaven for you for all the dogie Mommying you do.:D
It's nice to see that there really are dogs like LuLu who last more than the 2-1/2 years you do often read about cushings. Your sharing gives many people hope.:)
