My kitten fell and hit head. What to do for a kitten concussion?

Question

Unfortunately today my 8 week old kitten fell through the banister of our stairs and hit his head. I took him to the doctors and they said he has a concussion and that his brain has swelled. I took him around 12 pm. They are taking care of him at the vets. It is now 7:20 pm and he is still the same. I am very worried he will die. What shall I do?

I'm so sorry that Noah Khan hit his head! He's in the best place possible with the vet, and they can monitor him and treat him as needed. I would keep him there as long as the vets recommend to keep him, and I'm sure they are doing everything they can for him. Unfortunately all you can do is wait for updates and hope that he will be ok. Hang in there, I know it's so hard and I will be hoping as well he pulls through ok!
