Just wanted to express my sadness for you and your family. I too know how hard it is. Last year I adopted a two year old female boxer who seemed completely healthy. In a few short months she started showing odd symptoms and upon taking her to the vet found out that she was epileptic. She soon began having paralyzing seizures, would yelp out of the blue, and pace for hours at a time. The end came sooner than expected, but she was miserable. I miss her terribly, but am glad she's not suffering anymore. It's tough, these guys touch our hearts in such a great way. Monte, Peyton and myself are thinking of you..
