I didn't want them to remove the cancer last week, I didn't want him to go through the pain. Then the night before last he fell down a couple of times. Last night he fell a couple more times, but still went on his walk.
This morning there were no kisses, no drinking water, no wanting food.
So the vet gave him Dexamethasone and Methylprednisolone. Told me that he could have another stroke in a minute or in a year. Or that he could die on the way home.
On the way home,(40min drive) He sat up and was kissing my hand!!!
The vet gave me Hill's a/d, he ate almost a half a can!!!
He's NOT drinking water so I'll have to give that to him by syringe. The vet also told me to give Buddy some "Ensure"
Has anyone used "Ensure on their 15yo Puppy?
What can I expect from...
the stoke?
Ensure?
Any info I can get I would most appreciate
I'll be back in a little bit, have to go cry again |
A friend of mine bought her yorkie 2 more years of quality life with Ensure....don't use the Plus on him....to much fat....She did use the Vanilla.
