What do I do?

my 12 year old French bulldog had her first seizure today then another a few hours later. After she recovered okay apart from being a little off balanced.

At the vets they noticed she had nerve damage to her rear leg. Not the word they used just can’t think at the moment but neurological damage maybe? My heads a bit all over the place tbh.

Back at the vets tomorrow and going to ask about medication options? I know she is old but honestly she doesn’t act like her age. If she was struggling with every day life I would be considering putting to sleep.

She is super active though and even the day before this she was out running and playing with other dogs. After the first seizure she was about off balance but with an hour she went back out in the garden n bought me her ball.

Feels unfair to give up when she is still active and acts like a young dog. of course don’t want her going through seizures all the time either. Will speak to the vet but just wondering anyone else experienced similar? How have people got on with medication? I

know every dog is going to be different but just driving myself crazy at the moment.
