Emergency vet trip

First let me say my puppies are looking & acting great right now. I would love for everyone to think good thoughts & say prayers for them to continue to do well after todays scare. My vet is on-call for me tonight & told me what symptoms to watch for through out the night. This would be excessive vomiting or muscle tremors. I hate to admit this, feel awful beyond words & spent the evening crying more than I have since Gane's rattle snake bite but I overdosed my babies with the wormer medication. I accidentally used the wrong size syringe to administer the dose. I did not realize this until I went to give Sparta her dose, after all the pups were already done. My heart sunk. I spoke with my vet, who spoke with poison control & these babes needed to be rushed in asap. Once there, they were taken right back & the regime started of inducing vomiting, using charcoal for absorbtion, & giving IV fluids. We were there for three plus hours. The staff was truly wonderful with these angels. In the middle of this horrible ordeal, my car that was parked in front of the vet's busy office was broken into. I saw the loser hanging around the area but figured he was there for a pet. He used a very large landscaping brick to break the passenger window & stole my mother's purse. She lost everything from her blackberrry, credit cards & more. Glass was everywhere & inside damage was done. I'll call my insurance tomorrow to get things fixed. As the cops were taking the report, my dad took all the pups back to my house in his car. Well, his car broke down on the way! He had to call Wade to come get them. This has been one the the worst days I've had in a long, long time
