After 2 days of vet appointments we've come to the point that JoeJoe is off to see the specialist today to do another ultrasound. His blood work came back that although he hasn't shown much of the low energy signs of anemia, he is in fact highly anemic. The vet said at only 13 weeks old he is showing high signs of a major internal infection that his body is trying to fight. He has lost 3 ounces in two weeks which is rough on my little guy since he is still under a pound and a half. I haven't gotten to spend much time on here since i've been keeping an eye on him. He seems healthy to the eye besides the sneezing and occasional morning fits, he's as hyper's any puppy during the day and eats well, so I am just hoping this unknown will pass... I have spent a lot of time at the church to ease my thoughts so i am hoping that the ultrasound will give us a clear idea of what could possibly going on. As a college student in the middle of moving apartments and also starting my senior semester of school I'm running on a tight budget and am looking for outlets to help supplement my income just in case he has to go through some major treatments after the ultrasound. We have been pre warned by the vet, so now i'm looking into taking another part time job just incase. Poor little JoeJoe has no idea whats going on with on with himself and my boy seems like a fighter, so I hope this too shall pass.
Just releasing the stress i'm feeling. -_- |
