it is with much sadness that I report that Chaunceys visit at Cornell today didnt go so well.
After a neuro exam, we agreed to have an MRI done. The MRI showed a lot going on in Chaunceys brain.. none of which is good. Basically the dog is suffering from a Inflamatory brain disorder (NME). The result of the MRI was worse than we expected. The neurologist is surprised he made it this long and didnt have more severe effects. There is really no good outcome. Even with medication he may live a week to a few months.
We are waiting to hear how he comes out of anestesia and will go pick him up tomorrow.
This is so traumatic for me. My poor baby.
I almost wish this was a liver condition that perhaps would have had a better outcome. A broken leg would have even been better.
thanks for everyones support and help through this. |
