I am sorry your first post is about your baby being so sick.I lost my Gracie at 6 1/2 to collapsed trachea. Her's was collapsed in the thoracic area and not a candidate for surgery. She did ok on meds for about a year and then one day she hadn't moved from the spot I left her in when I went to work and was having great difficulty breathing. I took her to my vet and she I asked her her opinion on what to do. She said she is struggling for every breath and is not enjoying life. I knew then it was time. If your Gretta responds to the medicine, continues to eat and drink she may have some quality of life. I know with Gracie it was critical to keep her from getting excited and that wasn't easy. It is the hardest decision to make but if they are suffering we have to do what is best for them. I think she will let you know when she has had enough. I will keep you both in my prayers. |
