Major update!
My Trixie started shaking today, so I knew she was in pain. I went to 3 vets and all of them were closed or out of town. I finally drove 15 minutes away and went to another vet. They did a x-ray on her and discovered that she has swallowed some metal, and she had to have immediate surgery to have it removed.
We took her to a Animal Hospital that's about an hour away, and they took her immediately. They were very nice and caring. They called us about 30 minutes ago and said she was out of surgery, and she had metal fragments, and hair and all kinds of junk in her belly. She must have gotten into some dirt when me and my mom were cleaning the house! How could we have been so careless and let her be sick for a week?! I feel horrible. I know I must be a bad mommy for not realizing it sooner. My mom being a nurse tried to diagnose her herself..but next time we'll always take her to the vet first. The vet that did her surgery said that her plasma is very low, so she has to have plasma transfusions tonight. She couldn't digest food, so she was basically starving to death. How could I not see it??? Her belly was huge but after being told that, I remember that I could feel ALL of her ribs and her back bone. I hope and pray that she comes back to us tomorrow. If I get the chance again, I'll be a better mommy to her than I was before. I'm heartbroken and I blame myself for this. Please pray for my baby.. I don't wanna lose her! She's my life
