Narcolepsy in Shetland filly foal.

Shetland filly foal ('Dill') diagnosed with narcolepsy, seen at few days of age. Worst case 'drowsiness' timed at 12 mins. Mare's milk stripped and foal bottle fed in early days to feed foal. Foal soon feeds itself. No further occurrences of narcolepsy by 4th or 5th day. Bouncing and energetic Shetland foal thereafter. Just like its half sister and brother. (All born during a long ten days)

You give him medicament's? Sprechen Sie DEUTSCH?

@MrCollan The filly is still healthy and seems to be happy. No medication or treatment deemed to be required. She is still gorgeous and continues to be outside in the field, fed even more due to the severely cold weather we have been having here.Until last week there has only been snow on the ground for quite a while. The young lady seen cradling the foal is now a qualified Vet, working at Malton, England. I studied German for a while at school but stopped to gain qualifications for Electronics.

@dbootsthediva Finally may I say if you genuinely believe the crap you're putting on here then you should fuck off or you're a complete hypocrite. No one can reasonably believe you if you don't believe it enough to be too worried to go on the internet.

@dbootsthediva XD Thank you for the biggest belly laughs of the month! Yes magnetic fields exist more than they did, in phones and wireless connections and stuff like that, not the conspiracy you are on about. Yes magnetic fields are known to disturb certain brain patterns but in the opposite way to your claims, they reduce sleep not increase it. Finally I giggled so much at your claim that this conspiracy is why the foal's hair stands up, short fluffy hair normally stands up dummy.

@Ashwilliamskithe3rd Thanks Ash, Your input appreciated. (Grammer?, I tend to use "Grammar"; "Actualy? I use "Actually") otherwise laudable comments.(Is this a language separation thing? US/UK)

(Sorry, old bean, for being a picky sod - No translation available)("Conspiritorial" just hit me, Sorry, I'd use another version)

Will I be damned to wherever 'Picky Sods' should be?

Sorry again, in typically English fashion.

@dbootsthediva Boots! It might be the affect of the rainbows the ponies are playing in! They didn't do that 20 years ago, you know. Idiot.

[alahdorn]

what a beautiful little foal. Does he still suffer from it now? I have horses of my own, but have never dealt with narcolepsy.

@IntrapersonalKent I understand I am also aware that governments have methods in which to silence the messenger bearing truth I do enjoy life, but I am also a Humanist and I give a darn about what is happening to the fetus in the womb as we type and that is what is happpening world wide and that the female line will carry those genetic mutations because of DNA damage being linked to what they are sweeping the world with of wireless Thanks for your warnings Duly noted

[IntrapersonalKent]

@dbootsthediva and on that note, I shall continue my work in improving the health and lives of those unfortunately burdened by inherited genetic imperfections. Any advice to you would be to ((although I know nothing of your personal life)) enjoy the lighter side of things. You are still mortal like I am and the world will often repudiate you for your attempts at sharing knowledge. As sound as your warnings may be.

@IntrapersonalKent If the environmental factors r that they r subjecting our DNA to a harshier environment, then the DNA is going to try n adapt concerning that "ever malleable brain n DNA" The reality is that many animal n plant species r slowly disappearing, right n left, in this day n age we both live in Trying to reverse it to be about groundless philosophy about developing 3 arms is not going to change that reality The reality is it is about future generations health n humanity
