*sigh* Trys called the vet again about the oxytet. That, you recall, is the kidney-toxic oxytet that has to be given IV and has to be diluted and has to be dribbled into the baby horse over a fairly beefy timeframe for five days in a row on a patient who is quite a bit leery of needle sticks. The vet says “Do The Oxytet Or Baby Horse Will Go Blind In All Her Eyes Plus Also These Numerous Other Equine Vets Who Have Been Briefed On The Curious Case Of The Baby Horse Agree With Me. And also, it’s your baby horse, you do what you want.”

So, okay. You’re the vet. I hope to hell we can get the damn stuff in her. She is not a compliant patient. We might get a day or two. We are not going to get five days, I don’t think. I foresee another farm call and another iv catheter installed in my future.

Money, I didn’t like having it anyway.

Baby horse not dead as of last night, 8 PM. Seems fine. No lingering seizure weirdness. Haven’t seen another seizure. No clue here. She’ll do what she does.
