First, call Bonnie! She's amazing....this may be the only breakthrough you will really have.....no matter the outcome.

Second, why steroids??

Third, hugs to you for making Bridgette's life of value and giving her love. HUGS to Bonnie for helping Bridgette tell us what she needs.

Please update us all.

Bess, I believe the steroids are to help keep the swelling down, to keep the pressure off the brain. I once had a Chihuahua pup that developed swelling on her brain. She was not born hydrocephalic, but at about 5 months of age, she suddenly had a very bad seizure, foaming from the mouth and everything, and the vet said she had swelling on her brain. He put her on steroids to help control that. However, in her case, sadly, it never worked, and she died not long after.
