My wife woke me at 4:45 because our dog, Tess, was having a seizure
of some kind. The vet later said it was probably a stroke. In any
case, Tess could not stand, unless she could lean against the wall.
After another hour or so she could not stand at all. So we sat on the
floor with her for a few hours until we got a call back from the vet.

Took her in. The vet checked her over, saying there was nothing more
could be done.

So, at about 8:15 this morning, we put this girl to sleep. She was
within three months of being 15 years old. We'll miss her.

Sorry to hear about your loss. From your posts in here, it sounds like
she was a great family member.
