The tech put a chair close to the cage so I could take her out far enough to hold her without disturbing her IV. I thought they were going to remove it if she ate but they said not yet. She just licked and licked my arm. She is still very weak but soooo much better than she was. It's amazing how well she is doing. God is good to me again! If she has a good night and no seizures, I get to bring her home tomorrow evening. I hope so, but I'm also a little scared that she'll need more care than I can give her. She'll be home alone all day except for the hour around 1:00 when I always go home to potty her and play for awhile.
Keep up the prayers everyone. She is sooo much better but she still needs to get lots more healthy. Tonight they are going to feed her some baby food chicken and rice. She never liked it before and I told them that but they are going to try it anyway.  They should just give her a bully stick - that would perk her up right now!  |
so sorry you are going through this - i remember when dexter was in icu with pancreatitis with ivs coming out of his jugular and it was horrible - i just held him and kissed him as you only get about 30 minutes back there and he panted and shook - it was horrible - I hope i never have to experience that again so my heart aches for you right now. Hopefully she will be ok - best to wait til she can eat and drink. Is there anyway to get someone to stay with her tomorrow
i know it is tough with work and all but would be good to have someone stay with her or maybe the hospital can board her while you are at work so someone can keep an eye on her - my vet boards for $15 a day so check into that at least she is with someone but not as expensive as the hospital - good luck
