 Worried Sick
My baby girl, Regin, had an episode for the first time on Sunday. She was diagnosed a few months ago as having a collapsed trachea. I had always witnessed the 'goose honk' noise but I would rub her and she'd calm down. The other day was the first time it was obvious that she lacked air in her lungs and that she really does suffer from a collapsed trachea. Her tongue and her eyes turned blue. She vomitted a foamy like substance and was gasping not only for air but for life. It was heart hardening. Truly. She's now been put on a brochdilator, an inhaler and a steroid. Not to mention my baby boy, Reign (my other yorkie), Regin's big brother was definitely there for her the entire time. She's doing better now. I just pray that the medication relieves some of her suffering. |
