Our Beautiful Baroness Mylu

Our Baroness Mylu arrived yesterday afternoon.  Everyone had been waiting for her to arrive.

Mylu strolled through the gate with wiggles and smiles.  She was definitely happy to be visiting. 
Her dad said, Mylu has been seizure free for 1 month!  I know, that sounds great!
What it really means is for me to be prepared for the greater possibility of one happening during her stay with us.  We don’t know for sure what triggers Mylu's seizures if anything.
My goal is to keep a stable environment for her and reduce as much unexpected stimuli as possible.
I am familiar with her seizures and the treatment necessary when one occurs. 
Before she arrived, everyone had already had a good healthy run of exercise and playtime.  After  re-introductions and a calm walk about the yard, it was indoors for a bit of relaxation.

Mylu gets special treatment at bedtime and it requires everyone to have a designated spot that I deem the safest bed for them. I was very proud of Hazel and River. This was a first for them, to be here together with Mylu.  They took to their sleeping arrangement really well. Of course, there was a few side-eyes and head tilts, but they settled in no time at all and slept through the entire night with out a peep.

I think you made a mistake lady.
I'm s'posed to be in the crate

Within minutes Hazel and River were settled
and heading off to dreamland

 Lady May gets to sleep in her crate and is quite happy to have the door closed for privacy.
It's most important that Mylu sleep right beside my bed so I can keep close tabs on her throughout the night and have quick and easy access to her to keep her safe in the event of a seizure. She would much rather be snuggled in the crate, but that is not allowed when she is here.  We had a perfect, restful night and are crossing our paws to continue for the rest of her visit with us.

She is such a beautiful happy girl. The others sometimes seem to treat her gentler, as if they know.
I wonder?
